@battlemaiden13 I'm once again lost in the sauce of thinking of my boys meeting yours, and I got stuck on one thing...
My Red meeting yours, and ngl, I dunno how well that'd go lol. That's two big personalities right there; however, I realized one thing, and it's making me laugh a lot harder than it should. But my Red would 100% have, like, a freaking moment or an existential crisis over the fact that your Red is definitely taller. Like, my grumpy lad is short, he's 5'3" and he's well aware that he's short and he's never really cared. If someone tries to insult him using his height, it's very "oh wow, y'picked out an' obvious physical characteristic of mine as if i wasn't aware. yer a genius." But just seeing that there's another him out there, a different him that's taller... he'd just be like what the FUCK.
Cue the internal screaming as he gets grumpy and does his best to avoid this other Red, so no one points out the height difference, and then he won't have to punch them for it 🤣🤣
Ahhhhhh I love this sauce!
Both Reds just being pissy and fighting over petty little things is so funny to me. Like even if they agree they are agreeing aggressively and everyone else thinks they're fighting.
Skulls would keep accidentally running into MAM red and she keeps saying "sorry, didn't see you there" and it's literally because he's under her normal eyeline that she's use to seeing red but MAM red doesn't realise until HND red shows up! xD skulls would want to just lean on the small man all the time, especially because he would be the one she'd glue herself too since red makes her feel safe.
Colt shows up to and HND Red and Colt just being tall to the side to piss MAM red off more!!!
I also think though if anyone else points out how short MAM red is in comparison HND Red would see how mad he is about it and stand up for him which might make it worse but like who cares if he's short. HND is just annoyed at how touchy Skulls seems to be with MAM.
Side note would MAM red notice that skulls is calling him handsome and that he's the only one she's calling handsome because I feel like that nickname would slip from her and she'd just go, eh fuck it, they are technically the same guy.
I don't even think skulls would realise he's shorter until it's pointed out! When she does she'd make a joke implying her red is small in other areas and her red would join in on that joke. Only insecure men can't joke about their size.
I also want to believe that Berry is following Lissa around in HND trying to make sure she stays out of trouble but Lissa would get them both in some sort of trouble.
Sorry. Got off track. Thank you for throwing me back in the sauce.
They would be SO pissy with each other, and it would definitely have some of the MaM crew rolling their eyes, especially the aggressive agreeing. Like, we get it, you're so tough lol.
Oh man, Skulls just walking into MaM Red over and over would have him wondering if there's something wrong with her eyesight, and he'd definitely make a comment about it, probably a little rudely. After the third time of her walking into him, he'd probably start to call her "Stumbles" or "Fumbles" since that's the first thing he'd latched onto for a nickname. He wouldn't stop her from following him around, though. He's smart and perceptive. He'd realize she's nervous and just trying to ground herself with someone who is familiar, but he'll grumble about it all the while making sure she's okay.
If MaM Red even gets a HINT the HND Red is annoyed that Skulls likes being around him, he will absolutely encourage her to be around him more, just to be a total shithead cause why not? It's funny. However, MaM Blue would 100% notice and encourage Lissa to check out HND Red because he thinks she'd get a kick out of him. He wouldn't do this to be mean, but to point out to MaM Red that hey, you wouldn't like it if Lissa were chummy with another you, right? Cause Lissa would definitely find HND Red funny. She loves to flirt, she thinks dirty humour is hilarious, so literally all of his jokes would land, and she'd be tossing them back to him, giving as good as she gets, which would have MaM Red boiling. He likes Lissa, and hasn't admitted it to her or really himself yet, so he isn't sure how to go about getting her to stop paying attention to this other Red who is apparently hilarious. The jealousy would be REAL.
Also, if Skulls said that about HND Red's size while in front of Lissa, too, she'd joke about well, MaM Red might only be 5'3" but don't worry, he's good down there, which will have MaM Red literally dying inside because he was kind of hoping she'd forget about what happened during her heat, and everyone else in the MaM household losing their minds, wondering if she saw what he's packing. She makes things harder for herself with this joke lol.
AW, Lissa would find Berry following her SO cute. I think she'd kind of like it and think he's super cute, which she'd tell him, saying it's sweet that he's obviously so attentive in making sure she's okay.
I also hilariously think Lissa would be waiting for Orange to either get wildly flustered or walk into a doorway because she's so used to that with Stretch, so she's kind of paying attention for that. She's gotten used to catching him or grabbing him before he falls or walks into things. But then if Syrup walks into something or trips and falls while she's around, she'd absolutely blurt out, "Oh wait, is he the clumsy one instead?" Then she dies because she can't believe she just blurted that out.
I think that Lissa would also instinctively stick close to Orange without realizing if the MaM crew weren't around. She'd do this cause like HND Red makes Skulls feel safe, Stretch makes Lissa feel safe and wanted. He's always giving her good advice and helping her feel not so alone, so she'd just sort of gravitate to Orange, who looks so much like Stretch, but every so often she'd remember they're different and get a bit awkward and apologize for invading his space.
Skulls definitely laughs at whatever rude and offputting comments MAM Red throws at her and I think she’d adore the nickname he gives her. She’s like way to happy around him considering how upset she actually is to be separated from her skeletons but getting a new nickname, especially one that she feels is so unique to their dynamic makes her so happy.
HND Red would be so taken aback by Lissa’s reaction to him, he is never use to a positive reaction to his humor so he keeps getting lewder until he finds the line but he’s absolutely excited to have the attention. Especially when he notices how MaM Red is getting so annoyed. Like yeah, they are both doing the exact same thing to each other and making each other madder. HND Blue would do nothing to help and even tease HND Red about how happy Skulls seems with MaM Red. He’s doing this on purpose and to be a bit malicious since he thinks HND Red is being an idiot which HND Red eventually picks up on and just starts grumbling.
With the joke about MaM Red Skulls is definitely flirting about getting some hands-on experience herself before her Red tells her to knock it off. She also slips up saying the closet she got was with Mutt which gains several questions of her own from the HND crew.
Berry would be screeching at Lissa. Like how dare she think he’s being cute. He’s not being attentive, he's making sure the enemy is secure! But will ease up when she starts hanging out near Orange. Orange mentioning it’s because their ‘best friends’ in a clearly joke manner.
Orange is confused at the comment at syrup being the clumsy one before chuckling while Syrup doesn’t feel anything here. He’s actually pretty distant with Lissa to the point I don’t think the two of them would talk at all. Lissa’s first time hearing him speak is when the dimensions are briefly joined and he’s fussing over Skulls. Berry is the one to point out his brother isn’t clumsy, just blind and too lazy to put his contacts in. I also think it’s funny though that even if Syrup isn’t talking to Lissa she’s still reaching out to stop him running into things and catching him when he trips and he has a hard time pulling away because he’s so touch staved. He ends up standing there for 20 minutes one time while Lissa talks to another skeleton just because she still has a hand on his arm or something.
Orange is more than happy to have Lissa follow him around. He’s very chill about it, showing her around and introducing her to everyone, even telling the others to sod off if he can tell she’s getting uncomfortable or overwhelmed. He brushes off each of her apologies, he really doesn’t mind as long as she’s comfortable. He’s actually a lot more suave near her and hearing how Stretch is he admits he gets like that near Skulls.
Lissa also has the privilege of chilling with the Chaos Quartet if she’s hanging with Orange. Mutt would not be holding his tongue either, HND Money keeps asking invasive questions to get a reaction (and out of curiosity) until Lissa gets uncomfortable then he’d drop it and Coffee just seems like he’s getting dragged along.
I also think HND Sans would check in on Lissa consistently. Just asking if she’s ok or needs anything or wants to do anything. He can tell she feels comfortable around Orange but as the mediator of the house he also wants to just check in.
Deeper into the sauce we go! Lissa would love that HND Red takes it as a challenge to try and see where her boundary is with dirty comments. She'll probably try to up her own comments because death before dishonour, but the two of them will definitely find their boundaries alright lol. She's always happy to playfully flirt with him whenever he wants, but if she starts flirting MaM Blue is going to hop in to try and flirt as well with her because it's their thing. He can get pretty saucy with it too, which might throw some people.
She would definitely still think Berry is cute and listen to him screech at her, but hopefully MaM Black isn't around when it happens because if he is, he'll get into Berry's face and yell back that he doesn't get to talk to his Faye like that. Lissa will tell him to calm down really quickly, though and apologize to Berry for his behaviour, he's just protective.
If MaM Black isn't there, though, she'll say she's sorry and it's understandable that he'd want to make sure she isn't dangerous, especially being an inverto and all. Lots of people think she's dangerous when they first meet her, so she gets it, even if her smile doesn't quite meet her eyes cause she wonders if he genuinely thinks she'll explode outwards with her magic. She'll be anxious that they all think she's dangerous for a little bit.
Oh no, poor Syrup and Lissa would be so oblivious for SO long that he's stuck because she's touching him and he's touched starved. She'll definitely assume because he's so quiet that he's a lot like MaM Coffee or Wolf who like to hang onto someone when they're nervous so she might out of habit just hold onto his arm, or let him hold her arm or hold his hand thinking she's helping him feel more comfortable LMAO. Also, when Berry points out that Syrup actually just needs glasses, she'll find that funny and then explain that Stretch, who is like Orange, is extremely clumsy. He often accidentally walks into things, trips and falls and then also tell them the story of Stretch apparently pants'ing MaM Edge at a busy mall all by accident and also of the time he full on punched MaM Sans in the face by accident when he panicked.
Lissa will definitely find Orange charming and thanks him for being so nice when she's sort of struggling without her emotional support people. They help her feel better about herself and what she is now, and if he asked, she'd explain the whole inverto thing, that she used to be human, and once Frisk broke the barrier, she turned into a skeleton monster but she kept her soul traits. Her soul is just uppsy downsy, her words exactly as she jokes about it. When she hears he gets that kind of nervous around Skulls, she'll clock that Orange likes her immediately and ask him about it cheekily, then ask if he wants any advice about it since she's a girl and is happy to be his wingman if he needs it.
I think Lissa would LOVE to hangout with the Chaos Quartet. She'd definitely mention being an honourary "Idiot", as that's what the four from home call themselves because Black, Edge and Vi call them idiots so often that they decided to go with it. She's happy to go along with the chaos, or any jokes/pranks they have going on. She loves the sillies. Although, any invasive question that has to do with her body and being an inverto will likely make Lissa uncomfortable real quick as well as questions about her relationship with her mother. She's not good at hiding it too and it'll be written all over her face. If they push too hard, she might cry and try to hide it or be insanely embarrassed.
Honestly, I think having HND Sans check in on her would be a comfort. It would remind her of MaM Sans, which she'd probably tell him. That MaM Sans often checks in on her and is always so quick to help her when she needs it, but that he's so unbelievably stressed out that she worries about him, then asks how he's doing lately, definitely wondering if he's as stressed as MaM Sans is.
I definitely think MaM Sans would also be checking on Skulls, doing his best to help her be comfortable, keep MaM Money away with his nosy questions, stop MaM Black from being super rude to her and help if MaM Vi snaps when she goes into the kitchen, basically trying to run interference so the harsher ones don't accidentally make her cry.
I think The Idiots would find her interesting and would absolutely without a doubt ask her about what her versions of them are like. I think Stretch might be a bit jealous to learn Orange isn't a clumsy doofus like he is, but is pleased that she seems to like him as much as she does. He'd probably mention Lissa to her and how amazing she is, how he thinks Skulls would really like her, which probably tips off to Skulls that Stretch has some serious feelings about Lissa. He's pretty obvious with it.
Also, if Skulls lets them, Wolf and MaM Coffee will cling. They love to snuggle, cuddle, be hugged, or hug someone, so if anyone is willing to hold their hands, or let them lay their heads in their lap they will take them up on that offer, especially MaM Coffee. He yearns for the hugs.
Also, MaM Blue just the idea of him interacting with Skulls or Orange makes me laugh because he's just... so chill, so flirty, cause he'd totally flirt with Skulls playfully and he wouldn't be able to help but be the big brother because Orange has Stretch's face. He'd laugh about it, and apologize, but then keep doing it. He's also subtly trying to learn as much as he can and he's good at it, he might get a ways in before it's obvious what he's doing, and if he is caught, he'll be good about it. Shrug and say they couldn't blame him for trying to get information about what's going on. That if they have to, they can blame the cop in him, it's hard to turn off. He's charming about it and genuinely means no harm. He's just curious.
Sauce! Sauce! Sauce! Sauce!
HND Red thinks it’s so funny how open MaM Blue is considering his best friend usually tries to hide that side of him and if a version of Blue’s joining in HND Red is going to be such a pain. As in he won’t turn off the flirting and jokes to an obnoxious level according to everyone else. HND Red and MaM Blue teaming up on Lissa feels unfair and definitely what should happen.
It wouldn’t be the first time Black yelled at Berry although normally it’s his own Black. Berry would literally just stand there and take it knowing staying calm would probably piss him off more. I don’t think most of Berry’s screeching would happen in front of MaM Black though.
Berry would also point out he has no idea what an inverto is Lissa is just literally a stranger who took the place of his princess- he means the peasant! Berry’s probably the one to explain that inverto isn’t a term there and as such no one would be judging Lissa for being one. Like three literally dimension destroyers live down the way (the hotel bois) so she can’t be that much more dangerous.
Hnd Orange hearing the story of Stretch pantsing MaM Edge gets a wicked grin and has to jump over the couch as HND Edge tells him that he better not, before the two take off into the house. Orange ends up getting a sharp smack to the head after a while of this though.
Orange is so understanding while Lissa explains her situations. He knows how hard it is to be without your support system. He clumsily declines Lissa’s over to be his wingman before blushing and mumbling about how he’s already screwed it up. Besides Skulls has said she doesn’t want to date any of them. It’s probably the first time he seems like Stretch to Lissa.
As soon as any of the Chaos Quartet realises she’s uncomfortable they will change subjects or distract her. Mutt even offering her some flowers at one point to try and apologise for pushing things too far although I don’t think it would get to her crying as they can see pretty easily when she’s upset.
HND Sans is so taken aback when she asks how his doing stress wise he has to think before reassuring her he’s fine. This is probably when Lissa meets dog and realises HND Sans is not nearly as stressed as MaM Sans. MaM needs to keep catering to the other skeletons that show up to a point where as HND Sans is just in charge of keeping the peace in the house so he doesn’t have nearly enough to worry about. I also think this comes across as HND Sans being less tired than MaM Sans.
Skulls notices this about MaM Sans too as is just like super worried about him but obviously doesn’t think it’s her place to say or do anything. She tries at least by telling him puns whenever she sees him. She also doesn’t think it’s helping.
Oh Skulls is staying far away from MaM Money. Like actively avoiding him to the point where MaM Money might suspect HND Money did something, like his still an addict or something. So MaM Sans helping keep him away is actually super thankful to Skulls. But I don’t think any of them would make her cry. . . Well I think Bear would, accidentally. They’re just talking and she suddenly just misses everyone but it’s not because she’s upset about how anyone is treating her. She actually thinks MaM Black is super nice despite his rude words and she wouldn’t dare go in the kitchen. She’s not even allowed in the kitchen at the HND house, she’s never stepped foot it in. Vi might not realise she was watching MaM cook or something though.
I also think when Skulls realises that MaM Sans is running this interference she’d let him know that she’s good. She’d talk about growing up with her brothers and how harsh some of them could be. She wouldn’t crumble over words like that so unless any of them are planning to put her into an encounter or something he can chill for a bit. She’d also explain the encounter part with a version of Undyne and how she’d been assaulted and stabbed in front of her skeletons before. Then probably explaining why and her job in her world. She’s happy to help with suggestions if they need but obviously things work a bit differently.
Skull wants to hang out with the Idiots so badly, they seem like fun but she just can’t talk to Money. Stretch is defiantly someone she gravitates towards when MaM Red isn’t around and she has a fun time teasing him. Skulls loves hearing Stretch talk about Lissa, it makes her happy to hear a skeleton express so much love even if she is a bit jealous.
Skulls would defiantly left Wolf and MaM Coffee cling. All the cuddles and hand holding and lap resting. She is so happy she has to stop herself squealing. The first time Wolf hugs her though its fine and then Skulls get super embarrassed remember the last time she was close to Mutt and has to pull away, her face scarlet before reminding herself two very different monsters. She’s pretty ok with it after that and will constantly offer a hug or something whenever the two walk in the room.
Avoiding MaM Money is hard though. I can see it upsetting him (by accident) and I can imagine Skulls hiding in a random room when he comes past one time, it’s Pink or Taffy’s room and she confesses to them she’s avoiding MaM money because she has a stupid large crush on him and is worried she’ll kiss him or something more. She’d probably also talk to those two about her feelings for all her skeletons.
She’d probably confess this to MaM Money eventually when she notices she’s upset him though. She would also be so flustered by him after this, like totally unsure what to do or act and very much being uncool.
MaM BLUE! AH! Yes. Skulls thinks he’s so suave and loves flirting with him. The three together (MaM Blue, Orange and Skulls) are a very happy chatty bunch and this makes HND Blue very jealous. HND Blue has tried so hard to keep up the idea that he’s not a threat and innocent and MaM Blue is just here ruining it and he’s happy! I don’t think HND Blue got a chance to be happy being mature and flirty, most people don’t give him a second glance so he hides behind childish antics and he pretends he's not a huge threat so if it comes up he can surprise people. But MaM Blue is just so confident and Skulls is very much enjoying it. Skulls and Orange will also answer most of his questions although Orange is a bit sus as why he didn't just straight up ask
I also fear Killer accidentally scares Lissa, like to the point he makes her cry and he doesn’t know what to do about it. It was meant to be a prank for Skulls and now Lissa is covered in fake blood and got knocked off her feet. Day is there to quickly try and soothe things over but it might not be enough.
Epic Sauce! Epic Sauce!
MaM Blue would TOTALLY egg HND Red on because that's what he does with MaM Red half the time. If he senses that what MaM Red is about to do will upset someone, he'll step in to help his friend, but he also lets his friend make his own mistakes. MaM Blue can get carried away, though, with the flirting, and I do fear Lissa would lose that flirt battle if those two teamed up. She'd be bright purple and flustered by the end!
If MaM Black was there, saw it and then saw Berry stand there quietly, it would actually calm him down. He'd lower his voice, take on a more polite tone, and ask why he was doing what he was doing, because he does get it. MaM Black was the Captain; those things are hard to just get over and stop thinking about. This world may be "peaceful," but that doesn't erase the years when it wasn't.
She'd probably take the time to explain what an inverto was if they seemed confused, then kinda have a moment realizing oh shit, I'm literally a HUGE anomaly in this dimension because she's the only Inverto. She'd try to make light of her situation, which is probably the wrong move by making a joke, saying, just in case she starts to get angry or overly upset, just hit the deck before her magic explodes outwards accidentally.
Yes, Orange, just yes. Do your best to pants HND Edge. It would have Lissa in tears; she'd be laughing so hard because all she could think about was how absolutely DONE MaM Edge would be in this situation. Speaking of, she might honestly get a little flustered around HND Edge and sort of flounder over little things or excuse herself from the room rather quickly if he entered. She's not trying to be rude, he just reminds her of MaM Edge who she has unfinished business with, cause she's aware she has feelings for him, and he has feelings for her, but they never discussed it before this happened. Honestly, she'd probably be nervous that she'd blurt this all out to HND Edge, then get embarrassed because what the hell is he going to do about it? And apologize and tell him it's not his problem, and she shouldn't have put that on him just cause he looks like MaM Edge. At some point, though, she might slip up and call him Papy by accident.
I think Lissa would definitely see Stretch in Orange there, and it'd bring out that softness in her. She'd tell him that she doubts he screwed it up and that she's also said the same thing to her skeletons back home, but it hasn't stopped her from loving them; she's just not in a place to date yet. Don't give up hope just yet.
Yeah, it's unlikely she'd cry. They'd have to really push asking her about her mother, since that's such a strained relationship right now. It's just a sort of potential, but they're perceptive enough to back off when she's squirming, or you'd hope so anyway lol. She'd love the flowers, though. They'd get her really smiling, and she'd ask what kind they are and what they mean, then mention that Wolf back home is a florist and always tells her the meaning of flowers. He'd get a definite thank you for being so nice.
She'd be glad that HND Sans isn't as stressed and jokes that if he's able to ever meet MaM Sans, he should give him some pointers on not taking on so much. Depending on the conversation, she might mention that MaM Sans blames himself for everyone being there; he feels he ruined their lives by displacing them because not all of their friends are there yet, and he feels guilty that, because of the timing of everyone showing up, he couldn't help her with her problem for four years. Man needs a BREAK.
MaM Sans would likely know she's worried, and honestly, he likes the puns and jokes; they do help. He'd likely start tossing some her way whenever he sees her before she can, to hopefully show that he's okay for now, but he appreciates her trying to make it easier as they try to figure out why she's here, but Lissa is over there. Hopefully, before Evelyn, her father or grandmother figure out she's missing lol.
OMG, poor Bear, he'd be so startled and just freeze for a moment if she started crying cause she missed everyone, wondering if he did something wrong. It'll take him longer than the others to figure it out, too, but even if he doesn't realize it, he'd still apologize and say he didn't mean to make her cry. What can he do to make it better? Later, if Skulls ended up finding his notebook, like if Bear left it open somewhere, there might be a note that says, "Made new girl cry. Misses her people. See if Paps can make something sweet for her."
MaM Sans would be surprised, but also listen to the story of growing up with all those brothers. He'd smile and say that having that many brothers sounds like an adventure. He'd definitely promise that none of them will ever do something like that... well, maybe MaM Wine might, but if he tries to that she should tell him. He'd be pretty horrified hearing about her being stabbed; he's just such a non-violent person that it'd throw him. Trying to cover up his own shock, though, he'd likely tell her to tell the harsher ones that they'd been stabbed before. Bet it'd earn her some toughness points in their minds. MaM Sans would actually be quite curious if their world works a lot differently from this one. He might try to pick her brain about it, even explain how their magic works here, their special abilities, etc., if she were curious in exchange.
Stretch would like having her around, he thinks she's fun! He'd be a bit curious as to why she wants to avoid MaM Money so badly, though and depending on how she reacts, he might attempt to find out why. Likely out of pure nosiness cause he's nosy, Stretch and MaM Money are nosy. He might not pick up on the jealousy, though. She'd have to make a comment that has him wondering about why she'd say that. If that happened, he'd probably just ask about her relationship with her version of him. He's a good listener and apparently gives good advice.
The only thing I can say about MaM Coffee and Wolf is they would be absolutely in heaven with the hugs and cuddles because they're just such physically affectionate people. They're quiet too, which is nice when you need to rest the brainsauce lol.
Oh, I think Pink and Taffy would LOVE having her around. Pink would find her interesting and want to know all about where she's from, her family, her job, etc., and Taffy would be all over her love life. Sit down, Dr. Taffy is in, and he will help with all of your relationship drama, or so he thinks anyway, pfft. Taffy would listen about her crush and that he thinks it's so cute. That she shouldn't be ashamed of liking him, MaM Money is very charming; he's perceptive and makes you feel special and listened to, but if she keeps avoiding him, he might think she actually doesn't like him very much... which will make things so much harder because MaM Money if he thinks someone doesn't like him, will literally become the BIGGEST pain in the ass to that person. Why? Cause he doesn't have to be worried about formalities anymore. This person doesn't like him, right, so who cares? I doubt he'd be actively hostile, that's reserved for MaM Wine and MaM Sans, but he won't avoid her, honestly, might follow her around saying she can't be besties with his bestie but not be his bestie in a dramatic voice. I wish Skulls luck with this one's FOMO. Once he finds out the real reason she's avoiding him, he'd get gentle and quiet for a moment and joke about if she's sure cause he kinda sucks but eventually admit that he wasn't expecting that and he's really, really touched but he's in love with Lissa, and that he still would like to hang around with her and Stretch while she's here if she can handle it. If she can't, he can stay away, but he honestly doesn't mind if she wants to flirt, or get a hug from or needs him and Stretch to skeleton pile on the couch with her. Depending on how the conversation goes, he might give her cheek a friendly kiss, knowing Lissa wouldn't mind.
It's likely MaM Blue would notice he's made HND Blue uncomfortable and jealous. If he can, he'd try to take him to the side once he's finished with his flirting and apologize. Say he never meant to overstep any boundaries, he just thought it was harmless fun. He'd hesitate, then ask if HND Blue gets overlooked a lot because of... and he'd trail off, get a pained look and probably even go ugh before saying because you have cute features? He'd explain that a lot of the time, he'd get dismissed because he was so "cute," so he just tried so hard to go in the opposite direction. Be overly mature, be flirty and confident, but it didn't help much. He hates being called cute, he hates being babied, but he would feel absolutely wretched if he made this other version of himself feel invisible just so he could be seen.
Oh man, she'd be so dazed, like, what the actual fuck just happened. If it happens at nighttime, that would be the time she'd likely scream bloody murder and might even cry if it goes too far. She's good to be pranked, but if they scare her in the dead of night, where she feels most vulnerable because of her nightmares, she'd probably cry and just want to be as far away from Killer as possible until she calms down.
And now I'm wondering how Skulls would react to some of the guys' special abilities lol. Like if she got to accidentally witness Vi's sonic scream or if the Idiots made Red climb up the house and onto the roof to get something with his sticky feet, or Taffy using his magnetism to bring keys or other small metal objects into his hand with ease.
I guess the opposing side of that, too, is the others reacting to Lissa's ability to muffle herself, lol. She probably sneaks up on a few of them by accident.
I’ve had time to think about the sauce! Which, I fear, is never good XD
Lissa is going to be a bright purple mess and I am here for it! Go MaM Blue and HND Red GO!
Another thing that might make MaM Red jealous or upset is that HND Red calls HND Blue his best friend like he isn’t shy about it and I think HND Red and Edge’s dynamic is so different MaM Red and Edge might be a bit put off by it. Like HND Red still calls his bro boss and is snippy at him and seems scared at times (not that I think MaM Red is scared of his bro but him willing to give up his feelings for his brother is something HND Red thought about for like two chapters before HND Edge was like, nah we can share) but they’re also like, we’ll tag team Skulls no problem and HND Edge just sort of puts up with HND Red’s antics but will check in on him publicly if he’s upset.
Like HND Edge would see HND Red getting jealous of MaM Red flirting with skulls and just loudly be like “STOP BEING A MORON YOU KNOW SHE’S GOING TO COME OVER HERE AND ASK YOU A MILLION INAPPROPRIATE QUESTIONS" and then skulls would just yell out said inappropriate question across the room to which Berry and HND Blue are scolding her, also from across the room.
Berry would probably flip to work mode around MaM Black when he gets calm. He’d explain that he was worried about Skulls and he assumed someone would have given her the same 3rd degree since their switch was so sudden. He apologises for screeching at her but she called him cute and his immediate emotional response was probably not appropriate but genuine.
I like the idea of those two having like a really genuine and calm conversation from this until Skulls or Orange snap Berry back out of work mode.
The magic exploding out is such a cool comment as in I think if Axe or Crooks were around they could connect it to Mint and Mango because the same thing happens with their unstable magic and maybe Lissa would like to talk to them. I don’t think Berry would make this connection though and he would just sort of wave her off. Like yeah whatever.
Orange is getting a smack from HND Edge but both are sort of glad it seemed to cheer Lissa up about her situation. HND Edge might think he’s upset Lissa somehow though so he went to apologise for whatever it was, saying he doesn’t know exactly what he’s done but he does have the tendency to offend people without realising and then Lissa tells him about her feelings for her Edge. I think HND Edge would call her stupid but give some advice for if it was him in her Edge’s shoes what he would appreciate. Which would just be an open conversation. Like would you like to practice what to say? HND Edge would use this to tease her though, giving the worst answers or being dramatic to try and calm/cheer her up.
If she slips and calls him Papy HND Edge will tense and tell her not to in a rather cold tone. He’s trying to be nice, he really is but the nickname is just too familiar for the two. If asked why he’s being so nice he’ll honestly say he’s making an effort because he hopes MaM monsters are doing the same. Like he knows Skulls is tough and can handle the HND boys at their worst if needed but if one of them at least makes an effort to be nice then it could make it easier. Just like how he wants to make it easier for Lissa. He’s just trying to be a better monster for Skulls.
I don’t think Orange would tell Lissa the whole story about Myra and everything. He’d be too embarrassed but he can’t help but feeling hopeful from her words and he genuinely thanks her, getting this soft look as he does.
Mutt is taken aback by her questions on the flowers. Not many people ask him to explain them. Lissa might get him rambling about them and explaining how he’s also a florist. He even asks if she wants to see the garden he’s cultivating. He’s so excited he might seem a lot like Wolf but he doesn’t go for any physical contact and he is still swearing like it’s his second language. HND Coffee can join and they could all have a cute little walk in the garden!!
Oft yeah HND Sans cannot relate. He had no hand in the dimensions colliding here; it was a result of the barrier breaking. If they are similar though HND Sans could give some ideas of how to help MaM Sans destress (like stargazing or like wordsearch puzzles) or even just reminding him that it’s not entirely his fault. It’s not like the others also weren’t messing with the machine right? Or if anyone of them don’t blame him, encouraging them to tell MaM Sans could help. That reminders at least helped HND Sans when he was blaming himself for not helping Skulls when she was kidnapped.
MaM Sans with the puns would make Skulls light up. She’s kind of annoyed that she can’t think of responses as quickly. If MaM Sans mentions Lissa’s family, Skulls might ask if they have a cover story or want to work on one. The skull is pretty good on her feet but she doesn’t want to say anything that will make things worse. Skulls has confidence that Error and Ink will sort it out (She has no evidence for this, just an unwavering confidence that they will fix it) but if she can use her CEO Skills to help ease some tension if it comes up she's more than happy to.
Alternatively Skulls Brothers if they find Lissa would be interesting XD Damian would be the only one to worry about, I think the others would be fine.
Skulls would feel so guilty about BEAR!! Like she keeps calling him the wrong nickname, she cried in front of him because he’s just so sweet and made her feel like home before she remembered she’s not home and then the notebook! Ah. She feels so bad. She might even ask Sparrow to help her apologise because she really didn’t mean to make him feel bad, and she didn’t feel bad and she just wants to give Bear a hug and hang out with him.
Skulls would giggle a bit at the idea of getting toughness points. She doesn’t really need them unless they see her scars she won’t feel the need to tell them. She does think the idea of getting encounter training (her dimensions term for it) from Wine could be interesting even though she is well aware she wouldn’t last 30 seconds against him. She would love to go question for question with MaM Sans. It’s how she got close to HND Sans in the first place and her job makes her feel uniquely qualified nowadays to answer questions about monster politics in her dimension. Except she has no idea if monsters have special abilities. She knows Mutt has a strong sense of smell and Orange and Money can detect lies, Coffee can teleport (she doesn’t know about the others yet XD) and she’s pretty sure HND Blue has super hearing but she doesn’t know about anything else. She’s fascinated by the others unique talents though and would probably ask a fair amount of questions about the underground too.
Skulls would be a bit embarrassed to talk about her relationship with Orange but sharing with Stretch does help. She mentions his embarrassing trek with his ex-girlfriend, how Orange is the one she breaks down in front of and how they’re close because of it but not romantically close. She would tell Stetch she likes Orange but she also likes all her skeletons and she can’t just choose. She’s also not convinced Orange likes her. She will proceed to apologise for being too heavy.
Talking to Pink and Taffy is also very helpful to skulls and I think it does encourage her to talk to MaM Money. She hasn’t even noticed him being a pain because she’s too busy trying to stop her heart exploding or not be noticed by him even though he’s sort of following her telling her she can’t be besties with the other besties.
When she admits and he gets gentle and quiet before he admits he’s in love with Lissa I think it hits Skulls and shes like “well yeah, not literally you, you didn’t offer to bang me in a public restroom”
“and that was a turn on for you?”
And Skulls ignores him and it hits her, these aren’t her skeletons. They don’t know her. This is perfect! She wanted to stop seeing them through rose tinted glasses and get to know herself better and now she can basically do that and get used to being around skeletons who are all in love with someone else and it’s perfect! She is going to become so relaxed and chill it is insane. MaM Money now has to hang out with her. She wants to be besties. She wants to flirt (She will be screaming while they do) All the hugs, fuck it this is great. It’s like a holiday for her brain and she is finally relaxing and being herself.
The kiss on the cheek would have her fall to her knees and she's whining and yelling about how unfair he is.
HND Blue is very much connecting to all MaM Blue is saying and begrudgingly says it’s fine. He did the opposite and stayed ‘cute’ even though it was irritating because he got more attention for it. If he was going to be overlooked either way he might as well keep his childish hobbies and attitude. He does appreciate the apology though and probably awkwardly asks if MaM Blue wants to have tea together or do a puzzle or something.
Does Lissa drink wine? Because if she doesn’t really, I think there could also be a scene where HND Wine borrows her to visit the vineyard to have her test some wines he’s been trying to make for Skulls. He gets a free taste taster to try to create a sweeter blend and Lissa gets free wine. OR OR OR Charm and Lust taking her to their club for a night out of the house!
Skulls would froth the abilities. She’s so memorised when she sees them and will rave about how cool they are! Like when MaM red comes down she's next to him telling him how amazing that was and she’s just so genuine. Or Taffy will have her giggling in delight. And Vi would have her just is awe. She wants to know what everyone else is like yesterday.
Lissa definitely sneaks up on multiple people. Papyrus drops a few things after she’s done it. Mutt is swearing at her, Berry yells in annoyance, Orange jumps rather violently, Hnd Black automatically falls into a defensive pose before realising it’s just her and Syrup might accidentally hit her because he turned around too fast. Most of the other fellverse’s are good at hiding their reactions because of their survival instincts and the others would just tell her she spooked them.
Who would Lissa go to first when the dimensions connect. Like I think skulls would run and give HND Red a hug before quickly going to HND Edge to tell him she loves him just to see him turn red and start yelling at her.
ALSO Like Skulls was very good at keeping her temper in MaM (because nothing really made her mad) but she got back and HND Black and her are back at each others throats about a choice he made for clover corp while she was absent and she doesn’t agree and she’s there threatening to rip out his teeth or something while they yell and then she’s upset she lost her temper and one of the skeletons (maybe Syrup? Or Musket/Colt) had to hold her back and that like, fuck now MaM might think less of her. She hates losing it in front of new people because she knows she has a rough temper.
OK THAT’S IT! DELICIOUS SAUCE!!
I also got to spend today thinking about the sauce! WE'RE GOIN' IN.
That would absolutely make MaM Red jealous. MaM Red loves MaM Blue as much as anyone can love a best friend. Other than MaM Edge, MaM Blue knows him best, his moods, his motivations and treats him with a respect not a lot of others do. He hates that he can't muster up the courage to admit out loud that they're best friends. He'll admit that Blue is "One of His", which, for MaM Edge and MaM Red, that's huge, it's as close to saying "friends" or "loved one" as they can get, but MaM Red has always wanted to be able to tell his best friend that that's exactly what he is, his best friend. So, he'll probably feel almost ashamed that he can't seem to do it, but this other version of him can. Maybe it'll get his butt into gear, and he'll actually manage to mumble it out at some point to MaM Blue, who will be so surprised he'll wonder if his bestie is sick for a second.
Their dynamics are different, and MaM Red and MaM Edge would likely notice quite easily. MaM Red isn't afraid to tell his younger brother to fuck off, or piss off, or tell him when he's being too much. They fight more than the others do, but they're still very close. A lot of MaM Red's issues with backing off stem from the fear that he might be stepping on his younger brother's happiness. If he actually talked to his brother about it (it's painful for them, I swear. They need to talk more lmfao), he'd learn that's the last thing he'd ever be doing by going after what could make him happy. Honestly, MaM Edge is gonna be annoyed when they finally do talk about it like wtf, you idiot, are you kidding me? They can actually be quite chummy with each other, and it's kinda cute when they start teasing each other and start laughing. I do think MaM Edge would find the use of "Boss" amusing since MaM Red does still call him that in public and in front of others. It started as a joke to his older brother cause he said MaM Edge would try to always be a bossy pants when he was little, so it became a nickname that stuck, and I think he'd like that's universal even if HND Red's reason for using Boss is different than his brother's.
I also think the Edge's would get along. It wouldn't be like the tense or pissy interactions between their brothers lol. I just see there being a lot of mutual respect, at least, I definitely think for MaM Edge anyway lol. He'd see HND as another him, so why wouldn't he treat himself with the utmost respect and courtesy? Like, there's no ass-kissing or anything, but it's just polite. And then Lissa dies cause there are two of them now. Send her help!
I think that flip with Berry will have MaM Black becoming quite agreeable, and the two would probably start getting along well. He'd appreciate the explanation and admits that he's just protective of Lissa because she's special to him, but he shouldn't have gotten so heated, not when Berry was doing exactly what he'd be doing if the roles were reversed. He'd chuckle at him explaining the emotional reaction and admit he'd likely react the same. And with them getting along, MaM Blue would likely steer clear of Berry from then on LOL. He already gets yelled at by MaM Black; he doesn't want another person doing the same, even though it's highly unlikely that Berry will yell at him.
Now I'm thinking of the Oof that it would be if Skulls got to witness a MaM Blue and MaM Black spat. They yell SO loudly and literally everyone in the MaM household is SUPER over it to the point where MaM Papyrus will likely come grab each of them by the scruff to hold them up and away from each other with a sigh before scolding them that he'll get the get along shirt, just try him.
Honestly, she might want to! When Lissa gets too overstimulated by her emotions to a breaking point, her magic loses control and sort of forces itself outwards from her. It can be rather destructive, but the more control she gets, the less destructive it becomes, which is why when her magic lashed out at Stretch after the lunch with her Mother, it only sent him flying a few feet instead of creating a literal explosion. I think she'd also appreciate Berry just brushing it off and not being worried. Like, he doesn't really connect what could happen, and she'd probably get that, but still be so excited that there's someone out there that isn't worried about her unstable magic. She'd likely try to spend more time with him after that, wanting to learn more about him cause not only is he adorable in her eyes, but he isn't worried about her weird magic. Win/Win! Sorry, Berry, you got a new friend now.
Poor Lissa would feel so bad for making HND Edge think she was upset with him and telling him he doesn't need to apologize; she should be the one saying sorry for avoiding him. She'd laugh at him calling her stupid, cause it'd remind her so much of MaM Edge and thank him for the offer. She'd probably admit that she's aware that her Edge is in love with her, she felt his emotions when he healed her injuries after she barrel rolled into MaM Wine's room and then again when she fell down the stairs like a limp ragdoll, and she'd just say all this casually like she didn't seriously injure herself one of those times, but she isn't sure how to explain to him that she has feelings too but she has feelings for some others and it's very complicated. So, she might take him up on that offer, honestly.
She would apologize profusely for the Papy slip-up and explain that it was just a habit, since that's what she calls MaM Edge, because he likes it, but if he ever meets him, HND Edge didn't hear that from her. It was their secret, but she hadn't been thinking, and it slipped out because she honestly forgot where she was for a second and who she was with. She got comfortable for a moment and forgot. She'll be more careful! Lissa would also assure him that her boys would be treating Skulls well, especially the other him, MaM Edge. He's too much of a gentleman not to be nice. He's probably bending over backwards to make sure she's okay, but being snarky all the while. She'd think he's very sweet for wanting to be better for Skulls and tell him that she thinks Skulls is so lucky to be so obviously loved.
I can definitely see Lissa telling him that he's welcome, but adding that he should know that she's only known Orange for a little while and she already likes him in a more friendly way, he's kind, funny and charming, then joke that there's a sprinkle of awkward in there too, but that if she's only known him for a little while and already wants to be his friend, then there's no way that Skulls who's known him for a lot longer doesn't love him. He seems very lovable.
OMG, she would be so excited about the garden. Like it would be very "There's a garden, and you're only NOW telling me? What're we doing here? Show me! Show me!" It would be the cutest little garden walk, I'm dying!
She'd appreciate any advice HND might have and listen closely to how she might be able to help her friend. I think she'd probably mention that a lot of MaM Sans's doubts probably come from Bear, who if she's met Axe by that point, would explain that's who Bear looks like and the whole Bear is a future MaM Sans thing, so Bear is often very hard on MaM Sans cause they're the same person and then Lissa gets herself confused as she explains it before saying that MaM Sans needs a hug and a break, but she's definitely going to try to take him stargazing now, and she can't believe she didn't think of it before! He might end up sensing she's got some guilt of her own here when it comes to MaM Sans, since she was a bit hard on him when it came out that he'd known she was in the Facility for four years before being able to get her. She's apologized, but wants to do more, so she's excited to try the stargazing.
MaM Sans would likely try to help her with coming up with puns quicker, joking that he needs to sharpen her skills to surprise HND Sans when she gets back. She'll be even faster than he is at coming up with them! He'd appreciate her wanting to help cover things up, but he'd admit he's likely going to be truthful since hiding things hasn't really gone well for him in the past and that he'd tell her little sister Evelyn first if it came to that. Evelyn would be able to help explain to Milo and Gran Faye what's going on. He'd probably get this almost disgusted expression, though, and say he has no intention of telling Rosalina, though. Woman can rot for all he cares.
Sparrow would be there in a heartbeat to help! He's always there when Bear is involved, and after listening to what happened with Skulls, he'd likely chuckle and tell her that she doesn't need to feel too bad. That she should just tell Bear that she actually was just missing her version of him and her friends. He'd understand right away and, honestly, be relieved he hadn't upset her. Bear would also likely give her a hug if she asked for one. He likes hugs; they both do. It helps them feel grounded in reality when things are harder for them. Sparrow will even offer to go with her when she talks to Bear if that helps her feel more confident!
Oh boy, MaM Sans would tell her right away that training with MaM Wine is a no-go. Stay away from that with a ten-foot pole. Explaining the one time MaM Wine trained Lissa in magic, he stabbed her in the arm with his rapier to prove a point. He was banned from training until Lissa demanded it, and he couldn't say no. MaM Sans would 100% go question-for-question with her. I can see the two of them sitting on the couch in the living room or at the island over lunch or something, just asking questions back and forth to learn more about each other's worlds. MaM Sans would likely answer as much as he could about their unique abilities, even explaining his own to see soul stats without having to manifest a soul; he just needs to consciously look, but not to worry, he hasn't looked at hers. He wouldn't be that rude; he tries to never do it without permission because it can feel invasive if the person doesn't fully trust him. He'd laugh and say Lissa described it after letting him do it, that it was like someone stuck their hand inside her very being and wiggled it around. He'd find that Orange and HND Money can detect lies extremely interesting and say as much. If Skulls asked why, and for this to work, let's say Stretch and MaM Money are nearby, and so is MaM Red. MaM Sans just turns to MaM Red and is like, "hey, red, you know we're totally not best friends." And from wherever Stretch and MaM Money are, they both chime out at the same time loudly, "lying!" because they literally can't help it, and MaM Sans would just point towards them.
Stretch would listen to everything she says and softly tell her she doesn't need to apologize, and honestly, he thinks Orange likely does like her a lot. Lissa comes to him a lot with her problems, which makes him feel really amazing that she trusts him so much, and he's always encouraged her to keep doing it because he loves her and wants to help her. If Orange is encouraging her to keep coming back, he likely cares a great deal because otherwise, why would he keep doing that? He'd also tell her that she doesn't have to choose. That she isn't wrong for liking multiple people, and that if she's upfront with them all, then there shouldn't be a problem. That polyamory is a valid and viable option as long as they all agree. She also doesn't even have to date them to love them. It's okay to love someone, but not be ready for dating. It takes maturity to realize you're not ready for something like that and that if they really love her, they'll wait for her for as long as it takes, just like he's gonna do with Lissa.
The freaking sex in a public bathroom would have MaM Money cackling and telling her he's gonna have to try that one at some point. That this guy is definitely him, since he's totally hooked up in horrible places and probably goes into way too much detail until Skulls tells him that's getting a little TMI, or someone happens upon them, likely MaM Edge, who yells at him for being an absolute barbarian in front of a lady, show some freaking class! Also, MaM Money would have no issues being besties and hanging out because that was the goal all along, and now he wins! Besties for life! She's going to be draped on and lain on constantly. Prepare. Stretch will tell her if it gets too much to tell Wolf, the larger Papyrus will take care of it. MaM Money is a huge flirt, so Skulls better prepare cause he'll bring his A Game. Plus, he'd feel so victorious over her getting flustered over the cheek kiss. He's a smug bastard.
Honestly, I could see MaM Blue in that situation just hugging HND Blue and saying he's sorry again, then probably apologizing again for the impromptu hug, he just got a little more emotional than he thought he would. It just hit him harder than expected that someone else just gets it. HND Blue gets it, and that feels really, really good to have someone else who understands how he feels. He'd beam at being asked to do a puzzle or get some tea and tell him enthusiastically that he'd like that. He'd mention he's pretty good at baking if HND Blue would like to bake something with him for the others, so the two of them can get to know each other and make something nice for everyone. He'd like to be friends!
Lissa does from time to time! She doesn't drink a lot cause the whole inverto thing, and they don't know how alcohol can affect them fully yet, but she'll have a glass if offered it! She'd be happy to try the wines for HND Wine, mentioning that her Wine also owns a vineyard and winery that's called Celestial Gold. It does really well, then jokes that MaM Wine is actually her sugar daddy since she couldn't get a job for so long. Well, MaM Wine and MaM Sans are her sugar daddies since they deposit money into her bank account every week. She would also DEF go out for a night of dancing at the club, especially if some of the others join too. That sounds like a freaking amazing time.
Poor MaM Red would turn bright red and tell her it's nothing, his ability isn't anything special, he just adheres to walls, big whoop, while MaM Money tells her to ask about his jaw too, which just has MaM Red wanting to choke him. He's not used to feeling special or impressive, so this feels foreign to him when others think he's cool. Taffy would absolutely be showing off to her, too, like, I can do this too and this and this, because at heart, he's an entertainer, and I can also see him dying to take her shopping with him. He loves to shop and hoo, if she's willing to go out dancing with him, he'll be her best friend for life. Taffy's been dying to go dancing.
The poor HND skeletons with Lissa just sneaking up on them. She'd be apologizing every time and telling them she can't control it, that it's her special ability. She does it unconsciously right now. Syrup hitting her, though, would definitely have her laughing, which might look unhinged, but he just reminded her of Stretch so much right there that she couldn't help it. She'd apologize to him, though, and tell him she deserved that.
I also think Needle would be both curious about Skulls and very much like Sigh, a random human. Great. He'd likely startle her more than once cause despite his size, he's stupidly quiet. If he does it enough, she'll probably swear she can see him smiling behind that mask because he is. He's a total twat. What's worse is that he's so good at controlling his emotions that startling him back is so hard. He won't be outright mean... but he's not going to be nice either. Needle has the ability to clock people's greatest insecurities and bust them out when he needs to. Honestly, MaM Sans might be trying very hard to get MaM Papyrus to police Needle while Skulls is with them, since Needle won't listen to him.
Ooh, that's a good question... hmm... I think she'd run for The Idiots first, most likely Stretch, who'd pick her up in a hug, then the others would group hug around her cause they like doing that. Like Skulls, she'd go around giving hugs out to whoever wants them, and MaM Black would likely hug her for an incredibly long time, so would MaM Edge. She'd finish off with Needle, who would pick her up, and that's where she'd live for the next little while cause good luck getting her down. His summoner isn't going anywhere for a long while.
OMG, so many of them would be amused by her yelling and losing her temper. MaM Money would be wheezing and telling her to kick his ass! He would egg it on; he's terrible that way. MaM Red is just like damn, knew she was holding something back and likely egg her on too cause why not. MaM Money and MaM Red can feed off each other sometimes; they get along and are a weird sort of friendship lol. I can see MaM Papyrus trying to help diffuse the situation peacefully, though and without shame toward her cause, everyone loses their cool sometimes!
I also realized that if Lissa is in HND for a while, she'll likely have some nightmares while she's there. Ones where she wakes up screaming and sobbing, then gets embarrassed when she calms down. She'll feel so guilty if she ends up waking them up a bunch.
Whew, this took me a long time to write, but here we are! Sauce!
When, when does the sauce become a stew? Cause we got some chunks in this sauce baby!
I can just Imagine MaM Red Admitting MaM Blue is “one of his” (implied best friends) and HND Red would just scan him over and let out one of those single smug chuckles. Cause like he gets it, it took him ages to say it but he’s almost way to smug about being this far compared to MaM Red. Like these two are cooked. There will be a fight XD
YEAH! I don’t think HND Red would have the guts to tell his brother to piss off unless he’s in a really sour mood and then he gets dragged out cause HND Edge thinks he’s being depressed. HND’s issues come from a place of thinking he’s replaceable and that HND Edge would just get rid of him or kick him out if he became a liability underground. They are slowly growing past this but I think most of HND Red’s insecurities come from this and feeling like he’s just barely good enough to be in people’s lives. The fact that they both call their brother’s Boss though is so cute ahh. Like either Edge yells something at them and they both automatically respond ‘yeah boss’ and then slowly glare at each other because fuck you call him boss for? That’s my nickname for him. XD I love that they hate each other.
Alternatively I love that the Edge’s get along! I completely agree that they are just respectful of each other and find common ground really easily even if there are difference’s between them.
While Lissa is dying Skulls is totally going to tease her. Like, slung arm over shoulder “Careful Lissa. The boss really likes to tease people. Oh, did you know mine has a lingerie kink? I wonder if yours does to~”
HND Edge yells at her to stop whispering because it’s impolite and Skulls just yells back “love you boss” And he gets all red and loses his composer as he tells her off while she’s laughing. HND Edge just starts mumbling that Skulls is spending to much time with his Undyne and then the Edges can have a chat about Undyne too and AHHH. Yes to this dynamic all the way.
Berry becoming friends with another Black is great. All three of them together with more trauma bonding and mutual respect. HND Blue would also be steering clear of these two when he sees this. He was already outnumbered with HND Black and Berry he does not like the idea of a third joining that team up. I doubt Berry would even notice MaM Blue avoiding him XD he’d probably be more thankful because he doesn’t enjoy HND Blue that much.
Skulls witnessing a spat between the two would be so interesting to her. Like maybe uncomfortable giggling. Her Blue, Berry and Black try to avoid screaming in front of her but she’s aware they don’t get along. Last time she witnessed a fight HND Edge was involved and she got dragged in to judge a cooking competition. Watching MaM Papyrus just pick them up to has her like fangirling for a second before laughing at the idea of a getting along shirt. This house is so fun and lively it reminds her of home.
Lissa spending more time with Berry would work so well to because Orange would be there as well because him and Berry are “best friends” so the three of them could just hang out and it fits. Berry would get so annoyed at their antics, Lissa would get the full brat out of him I’m sure of it.
HND Edge would be great for Lissa to talk about her feelings with. Like he is respectful and patient. Offering advice from his perspective is a kind way because he can see how stressful this is. The cute scene of those to roleplaying to help Lissa talk through her feelings is so cute to. Like HND Edge starts taking it more seriously when he see she’s relaxed and responding like he would if he was in love with her to try and help the best he can. From the way Lissa describes her Edge HND Edge just feels like the other him would do the same and that mutual respect kind of starts here for him. Even if it ended up with MaM Edge not having much interaction with Skulls he feels sort of proud that he could help Lissa. It’s a big step for him. Like a year ago he would have been a real bitch about it so it sort of helps him see how far his own integration and therapy has taken him. HND Edge likes Lissa and he’d probably tell her that he thinks she’s very nice and brave for talking over her feelings even if she’s not ready to talk to her Edge about them yet.
HND Edge would also wave off her apologies. HE likes the nickname to but if feels too personal for their relationship. If he reminder her of MaM Edge though then MaM Edge must be a super cool monster so she can’t fault her for that. He says it so smugly too. Like he knows that he’s amazing. HND Edge does make the comment that maybe Skulls is a bit too loved. Everyone in the damn house, hotel and the. . . others care for her and if she loves them she’s said that she wasn’t going to date any of them. He also makes it clear that doesn’t mean he’s giving up though.
Orange and Lissa are so cute! Just they are best friends in this cross over! They just seem to understand each other so well and they are joking and friendly and have similar experiences and I think they are great. Orange is so thankful for her kind words towards him and it makes him feel so confident and comfortable with her. He’s also glad to have someone in the Chaos Quartet who isn’t from a fellverse because now he’s not the only one being picked on.
Mutt is so excited that she’s excited about the garden Lissa will get the whole tour. He’s talking her ear off and even tells the skeleton who comes to tell them dinner is ready to fuck off because he’s not done! No one ever lets him talk about flowers, this is happening! This garden walk is everything XD
HND Sans is just like, yeah Axe is technically him from the future but HND Sans is working on the hope that they are above ground so he won’t turn into that, I mean HND Sans also has Killer around (and maybe a secret Dust somewhere) So he’s more at terms with the idea that the future can change and his actions are what make him. It kind of suck that Bear is not letting MaM Sans make mistakes though but it’s understandable why he’s so hard on him. Axe feels like he has more bad days then Bear so it doesn’t really happen here but if HND Sans thinks about it Axe can be overbearing and judgy when it comes to him too. I think HND Sans just lets it roll over him because he has less responsibilities and guilt then MaM is working with and because of that he doesn’t really feel like he has any advice that would help, he would certainly try but it’s pretty clear he’s not sure if it will help. HND Sans does offer to take Lissa stargazing before she takes it back to her dimension so he can tell her some facts or puns to really surprise MaM Sans if she’s down.
On the other side Skulls is so happy when MaM Sans starts helping her with her puns. She claims she’s going to make her Sans laugh so hard he won’t be able to stand. Skulls would be reassuring that Error and Ink will fix this fast, hopefully before anyone has to find out Lissa isn’t there. Error is probably going to be pretty annoyed that she managed to slip through dimensions.
Bear, Sparrow and Skulls need to have like a nice picnic or something together for some cozy vibes. That’s just what I’m getting from them. Although I don’t know if Bear shares Axe’s sense of dark human so Skulls might stick her foot it in a few times.
Skulls is trying to figure out in her head if being stabbed with a magical rapier would hurt more or less than any other weapon she’s been hit with. It’s probably for the best anyway. Skulls doesn’t need or want anymore nightmares. The question for questions with MaM Sans is so cute. Like every morning or everytime they see each other its like “oh I thought of something else” And then they just share some questions and go back to it. Like some questions from skulls would be: in my world magic taste and feels different depending on the monster is that the same here? Why did Vi choose to be a lawyer? Do yall have heat cycles? And one time Skulls just asks for a hug cause she couldn’t think of any other questions on the spot XD. Learning MaM Sans can see soul stats would spark a whole series of their own questions and Skulls would be so interested to know her’s but Lissa’s description sound so disturbing it has her flip flopping between wanting to ask and being like, nah, I’m good. It’s really 50/50 weather she does end up asking or not. The biggest smile ever spreads over Skulls face when Stretch and MaM Money yell out ‘lying’. Also the idea of those three specifically being close by while Skulls ask MaM Sans questions is so cute just in terms of those three are the ones Skulls has been latching onto (after she relaxes around Money) and I know that wasn’t the intention but I want to believe it was.
The parallel going on between Lissa and Orange and Stretch and Skulls is so cool. Skulls agrees that Stretch gives great advice. It’s pretty similar to what Casey (Skulls human friend) has been saying and she’s happy it’s not just coming from one person anymore. Skulls would probably ruin this great advice and super sweet moment with an really inappropriate timed flirty comment before thanking the skeleton and asking to move on from all this mushy stuff before she gets a cavity.
Skulls isn’t going to tell MaM Money he’s giving to much TMI she is loving this and plays into MaM Edge telling him off. How dare this evil skeleton hurt her delicate sensibilities with these stories :P She’s never heard such profanities in her life. Skulls is going to love hanging with this bunch. She might tell Wolf it’s getting to much just to see what he does. Skulls is very much only half prepared for the flirting but will be asking inappropriate questions about MaM’s kink’s and magic tastes and I can also see her hugging him and telling him she loves his scent and wants it all over her and YES she KNOWS it’s inappropriate, she doesn’t care, unless he gets extremely uncomfortable (going for a blushing mess here not pure disgust from the man) then she apologizes very sincerely and points out it’s the apple scent and He smells like her money and she won’t do it again. He defiantly wins with the kiss on the cheek though.
Awe! The Blues cooking together! Yes! HND Blue didn’t even think of that because most of the time people don’t want to cook with him. They make the best desserts together. like damn. HND Blue might be getting a bit to excited in the kitchen as he keeps almost yelling as he talks and is going a mile a minute around the place. It’s definitely the ADHD kicking into high gear as he feels more comfortable around the other version of him
HND Wine finds the sugar daddy comment interesting but after gaining more information knows that won’t work for him on Skulls. I think HND Wine and Lissa’s dynamic would just be the two of them being polite to each other but never really going out of their way to see them during this time.
YAY Clubbing with Lissa~ Oh she could try monster drinks! HND Red would definitely try the screaming orgasm prank but because she has magic it might not work. It would be such a fun night either way and I can see it happening when Error and Ink are close to getting everything back, like a going away party for her.
Skulls needs to know about the jaw thing. She needs to immediately and bothers him until he spills and then gushes again at how freaking cool that is! Like Skulls is not clocking that MaM Red is not use to being seen as cool and Skulls just keeps laying it on because she does think Red is cool and hot. She has for a while and she is very vocal about it in HND so it just comes naturally to her here as well. Like she is calling MaM Red handsome and gushing over his figure like she normally would.
Taffy shopping trip let’s go! It’d be so fun for Skulls to get some punk clothes to match her style cause she definitely came here in her work clothes. And Skulls would love to go dancing (spoilers for hnd chapter coming up ops) she tells Taffy about how she got to dance on stage with her version of him and had a blast doing it. Charm defiantly took the lead though, she didn’t have to do much and she is looking forward to some normal dancing with Taffy.
None of the HND boi’s are upset they keep sneaking up on them. HND Papyrus especially is very understanding and is telling her what a cool trick it is. Syrup just stares at her as she laughs. Like he doesn’t know what to do here but alright.
It would be so cute when the dimensions are temporarily together for Lissa to be trapping Syrup by holding his hand and Skulls has MaM Coffee’s hand (Or Wolf’s) as the two girls talk. Skulls is trying not to laugh cause she can tell Syrup is just trapped there and eventually she’ll ask Lissa if they want to swap. Syrup immediately drapes himself over Skulls as the girls keep talking and after a while Berry is there yelling at him to get off.
Needle would remind Skulls so much of Mint just because of their attitude. I think Needle might find it interesting that even if Skulls is startled by him, which she would be, she doesn’t seem to react outwardly, like she just smiles at him and says hi when she notices him. Because he reminds her of Mint though Skulls might ask some odd questions about how to befriend him and things like that. I don’t think Needle would be very helpful here XD. It would be so interesting for Needle to just bust out Skulls greatest insecurity (which is that she thinks she’s a coward) Because like how is she supposed to respond. She’d get all serious and chuckle before pointing out she already knows she’s a coward. Her and Needle just having a stare down as MaM Sans and MaM Papyrus try to cut the tension is so good for the drama. Skulls would eventually back down and might even reassure Needle that Lisa will be home soon and that she’s safe, because Skulls is assuming this is why he’s being such a twat to her.
MaM Money and MaM Red egging Skulls on when she’s losing her temper is not helping XD HND Papyrus is also trying to calm her down though and having both Papyrus’ stressing to calm it down get’s her to stop pretty quickly.
I’ve been using the timeline of switch dimensions for a week, meet for like a few hours and then back to their own spaces baby. So I think Lissa would have a nightmare. It’s why I think she shouldn’t be introduced to the Don’s. . . at all. We’re going to pretend they aren’t there. The HND boys are concerned about her. HND Sans tells her there’s nothing to be embarrassed about and probably tells her about the camping trip incident, HND Edge and Blue offer to make her a tea or hot chocolate. Orange is sitting on the edge of her bed offering a hug if she wants or even to share a bed or he can sleep on the floor if she want’s someone close. HND Papyrus will be up again in a few hours so if she can’t sleep she could come help with breakfast and if given a moment alone and if Lissa is still torn up about it HND Wine might indulge the fact that Skulls has nightmares, about Coffee, now Lissa knows Coffee that has to be embarrassing so she has nothing to be worried about, although HND Wine didn’t tell her this if anyone asks.
Lissa also needs to hang out with HND Vi and HND Black before she leaves. I think these are the only two main ones we’ve missed! HND Vi could temporarily take over her training if she want’s. they have access to the embassy and it’s a good place to let off some magic. I don’t know what her and HND Black could do. Have Tea together? she goes with Mutt to his work and sees him getting looked down on by the humans or him working with Hobbs. I don’t know, I just want to round out the main cast XD
This is so fun XD I am loving this and fangirling and having so much fun! It’s so cool to imagine how skulls would act with skeletons she’s not in love with and I feel like she’s on holiday. It’s great. Anyway
Good soup!
I was almost too tired to continue this tonight after a long work day, but I kept thinking about it, and I got my tea here with me (literally, I've got a cup of tea) plus the playlist I made for Money on Spotify, so let's go!
Oh man, they'd be fighting before HND can even finish that chuckle. MaM Red would be snapping at him so quick it's not even funny. Like, snarling about what the fuck does he think is so funny? For someone in his position, he shouldn't be laughing like a damned chucklefuck idiot, or something like that. They're super cooked.
I wonder if HND Red would be nervous around MaM Edge or not cause of the way he interacts with MaM Red. I think if he did, MaM Edge might avoid him a little bit, but every so often look over at him as if checking in. He wouldn't be able to help it because HND Red has his older brother's face, and he loves his brother more than anything.
Oh man, I just realized that both Edges have a cat named Doomfanger! MaM Edge would definitely say something like well, of course they do because great minds always think alike, so it makes sense that they would pick the same name. MaM Edge would also definitely mention he has two more cats named Toby and Jangles that he got from MaM Red as gifts, with MaM Red grumbling that it was his worst mistake ever, but Edge just huffs and tells him it's not his babies' fault if he leaves his bedroom door and they get in and use the shit he keeps on the floor as toys or beds. He also has pictures on his phone of all his cats, like a true cat dad.
LOL, poor Lissa, she'd probably turn purple as she starts to wonder if MaM Edge does have that kink, then mention without thinking that she doesn't own any lingerie since changing into a skeleton. She wouldn't have felt comfortable in any before now, and she's wondering if she should get some. Then realizes what she's saying and tries to laugh it off, especially when HND Edge chimes in cause she CAN'T let him know what she was just thinking about her own Edge.
Hoo, I can just see the sneer on MaM Black's face the second he sees HND Blue, and likely if he gets too close, not even greet him, but instead snap as he asked him, "ANOTHER ONE? ARE YOU ALSO A LYING, MANIPULATIVE RUNTY ASSHOLE, TOO?" and if MaM Blue hears that will reply as he always will, "BLACK, WE'RE THE SAME HEIGHT, IF I'M A RUNT, YOU'RE A RUNT, TOO!" And then there's a yelling match, but if Berry and HND Black are there, MaM Black might just scoff it off because he wouldn't want to put off his good company, but MaM Blue will hear about this later lol.
Oh, don't worry, Skulls, most people just laugh uncomfortably when they start fighting. It's so awkward and childish to witness. I can also see MaM Papyrus noticing Skulls admiring him while the two are in the air, telling him to put them down and grin before winking at her cheekily, then putting them down before scolding them again. He'll get the shirt, though and make them wear it if Skulls wants to see it.
Yes! The three become overnight besties, and I'm living for it, and no one quite knows how it happened, but they're chummy, and that's all she wrote. Also, Lissa is pretty short (in my head anyway lol, she can be whatever height people want her to be), like she's 4'9" - 4'11" or something, so I'm pretty sure Berry might actually get to be taller than someone for once. She's probably the perfect height for some of the taller ones to prop themselves up on her skull, which she'd likely let some of them do. She'd definitely let Orange.
I just have this adorable image of them sitting outside or in a quiet room, just the two of them, and roleplaying this out. I can see her still having her phone from her own dimension on her, and it doesn't have service since it's a different dimension, but she can still access her photos and, after a while, show him that photo of her and MaM Edge they had taken during the detour. She'd laugh and explain that MaM Red had meddled by getting the two of them to drive home alone from a vacation together, so to mess with him, they'd gone on detours, leaving him to deal with MaM Money and Taffy's fomo. Then get quiet saying this is probably when she first noticed she was feeling a bit differently toward him. Also, oh no, a genuine compliment! That will have her surprised and floundering a little bit before turning bright purple. She's not used to being told she's nice or brave; she's so used to her mother putting her down, making her feel ugly, which she might mention offhandedly, but thank him for saying that; it made her feel really good inside.
Lissa would grin and say that MaM Edge is pretty amazing. He works very hard, and even though things haven't always been fair to him, mentioning that he's been fired from a few chef jobs because of the way he looks, he hasn't given up because he loves what he does. She'd reassure him that he still has a Head Chef position and is valued where he works, finally, but the fact that he holds himself to a certain standard and also holds others to the same, but never beyond what they can manage, is amazing. He pushes her to be better in a good way. She'd tell HND Edge that she can see the same qualities in him, too. That there's a kindness inside him that maybe people don't always appreciate or let him show it, and that Skulls definitely can see it, she sounds smart. Lissa definitely sees it, and she thinks it's good to not give up. Show her you care and that she's worth waiting for.
Ahhhh, they're the cutest besties, Lissa and Orange, I'm obsessed! Also, don't worry, Orange, Lissa won't let anyone pick on you lol. She can throw it back as good as she gets it; her sass knows zero limits, so bring it on.
I'm dying for this garden walk and can just see Lissa chiming in after Mutt to say, "Yeah, we're not done! Sheesh, the audacity." She's got a teasing tone, but will also then encourage Mutt to continue telling her about the flowers. She loves flowers so much and adores learning as much as she can about them, so she's listening earnestly.
Omg, Lissa might get the starry eye-lights at HND Sans offering to take her out stargazing. She'd be SUPER enthusiastic with her yes and thank you, then ask if she can take notes. She wants to learn and remember for MaM Sans, so when she gets back, she can surprise him. She'd laugh a little and mention that she always loves listening to MaM Sans explain things to her and that she'd snuck into one of his lectures at the University where he's an Astronomy Professor and that she'd almost wanted to sign up for the class just so she could listen to him talk about space more. She bets HND Sans is similar since he has the same calming vibes her Sans has, so she's really looking forward to this!
MaM Sans is glad he could help, saying he'll make sure she can surprise him, and that he doesn't know who Error or Ink are, but if she trusts them, then he can give it a try too. He'll try to relax after this since Skulls seems so certain.
Yes, the picnic must occur. Sparrow would cook everything, get it all packaged up, and the three of them would go out to a nice park where they would sit out, each and have a fun chit-chat! Bear doesn't mind a little dark humour every now and then! He might make a dirty joke that gets Sparrow sighing and him laughing at his brother's irritation.
It's what they do over their morning coffee! They sit and have a question off and it's a grand ol' time! MaM Sans would answer her questions as best he could as follows:
"yeah, each monster's magic feels different; we call it a magical signature. it's harder for humans to feel, but if you concentrate, you'll find it. monsters here talk to each other a lot through their magical signature. we can push our emotions through our magic to the other if we want to. think of it like a living entity inside our bodies that our soul controls, that's the easiest way to put it. it's both a part of us but also separate. it's simple, yet complicated, heh. uh and yeah, our magic tastes different and we each smell different."
"oh, vi's competitive and he likes to be challenged, but he loves the rules. being a lawyer gives him all three, at least that's what he told me." (Vi and Sans are very good friends)
"we sure do, twice a year. once in the fall and once in the spring. you actually just missed our fall ones, thankfully."
And he'd be surprised about the hug, but still takes it. MaM Sans likes a good hug, but if she picks him up, he will ragdoll; it's his go-to move. He'd also tell her that it's up to her if she wants him to do it or not, but if she trusts him even somewhat, it won't feel super gross, but it still won't be amazing. Kind of a toss-up, but he'll do it if she wants him to; he doesn't mind. LOL I also didn't realize, I could just see them in my mind being around, but damn, you're right, that's so perfect!
Poor Stretch would probably fluster immediately at the flirt and turn bright orange while rubbing the back of his neck, but he's still really glad he could help! He's also fine moving on before it gets mushy and would offer to play a video game with her or something. They have a crap ton of gaming consoles in this house as well as pretty good computers, so he's up for whatever.
Money would just dramatically grasp at where his heart would be at her playing into what MaM Edge is saying and gasp out, "no, your poor innocent, angelic, virgin ears! what have i done! edgy come purify us both with your purification juices!" to which MaM Edge just deadpans and tells him he hates him and leaves. Oh, it'll be pure chaos with The Idiots and telling Wolf that MaM Money is being too much will have him either smacking the back of MaM Money's skull, dragging him away by the collar of his shirt or hood, or lifting him off Skulls to then drop him on the floor. Wolf is also good to clothesline MaM Money as well and it's all done with this deadpan expression that makes it funnier. Aw, I think MaM Money would chuckle at her saying she likes the way he smells and then tell her that here, that's a rare thing. It's very rare that a human can decipher their scents, but if it brings her some peace, he's glad she likes it. However, at hearing she wants it all over her, he'll gasp and start calling out how Skulls wants his stank, she's wants in his pants! She's after him, and will literally tell everyone with zero lead up, zero prompting and at random moments that she wants to bang him, just to watch her reaction. Like, it'll be silent at dinner and he'll just speak up like, "so, she wants to fuck me. thoughts?"
YES, they cook and bake together, and it's so damned cute! MaM Blue is SO happy to bake with HND Blue; the two of them like a well-oiled machine in the kitchen, despite having never baked together before. If anyone asks how they manage that, MaM Blue would cheekily say it's cause they have skills, duh. Oh, MaM Blue would also be getting just as excited, his volume going up, and the speech going super fast. It's probably difficult to keep up with their chatting. MaM Blue might tell HND Blue more about himself as they bake while asking questions about HND Blue. Like, mentioning that he's a police officer and was actually the first monster to make the Ebott police force and it's been really hard, but also rewarding at the same time. He'd likely ask what HND Blue does and what does he like to do in his down time. I can also see them comparing how Orange and Stretch might be similar. It's just a very cute image in my head.
I also think that HND Wine and Lissa's dynamic would likely be polite since she already knows how hard it was to crack MaM Wine's shell into opening up. She doubts she could do it a second time, honestly, she doesn't know how she did it the first time! However, I think this would also have her missing MaM Wine a lot. Her Wine always makes her feel safe, wanted and comfortable in her body. He makes her feel perfect as she is and always seems to know exactly what to say to get her feeling better. She might get curious wondering if HND Wine has the same hobbies as MaM Wine like guitar or sewing, but not wanting to be a bother by asking. She'd likely make a note to herself to tell MaM Wine when she gets home how much she appreciates him.
Yes, clubbing! I don't know if the prank would work either, but I can see her telling him she'll drink it but he then has to come dance with her because it's always been a mission of hers to get MaM Red to dance at some point and I'm thinking she might be a bit tipsy here saying that since he's apparently ignoring her right now for some unknown reason since she didn't do ANYTHING, he must dance with her instead! It is demanded! She'll try to be persuasive, but is terrible at it.
MaM Red would explain it to her like it's no big deal, he just has a very strong bite force like... he can bite through pretty much anything, no biggie. It's not like he's got super speed and stamina like MaM Blue does, or can air jump like MaM Black can. After a while of the compliments, MaM Red would just be staring at her before finally asking if she's trying to fuck him or something. He's just super surprised, not so much uncomfortable just unused to it. Also, wait until Skulls finds out MaM Red can sing. Like sing. He thinks he sucks at it, though.
Taffy would just gasp and tell her that he needs to dance on stage with her now! They must do it! He NEEDS it! Taffy's fomo has been activated and now his fear of missing out has led him to dragging Skulls somewhere they can dance that has a stage like area where others can watch this happen. He won't force her, but he'll definitely be giving the puppy dog eyes hoping that works.
Lissa would be grateful that none of them are angry, especially cause she can't help it! She'd tell HND Papyrus that she'd show him how to do it but even she doesn't know!
LOL yes, just a moment where they all stop and just sort of stare at each other before they walk to meet the other. More staring then Lissa offers Syrup's hand and Skulls offers MaM Coffee's. Lissa would happily hug MaM Coffee and let him cling to her arm while talking to Skulls about how awesome her guys were this last week. She felt very welcomed!
Oh man, Needle would be very unhelpful with those questions, pfft. She'd get a lot of "How indeed?" and "That is not something you need to know." Needle would bust out her greatest insecurity if she told him to and after hearing how she already knew that he'd tilt his head while looking down at her and say, "And yet, you still had me tell you, meaning there is doubt and insecurity pushing you to do so. You believed there was something else inside you that could be perceived as weak and that in itself is weak." And that would have MaM Sans asking MaM Papyrus to control Needle since he'll listen to MaM Papyrus when he tells him that wasn't nice and he can't just insult people for funsies.
The Papyrus's to the rescue! The heros we always knew we needed! I love it!
I also was thinking it was like a week or two as well, so she'd likely have a nightmare! The first time it happens, she's definitely a blubbering mess and apologizing a bunch for waking them. If she takes a long time to calm down, she might mention without thinking that she wishes MaM Red was there to sing to her. He calmed her down so fast doing that last time. She'd likely take Orange's offer to stay with her, she sleeps better when someone else is there afterwards. She doesn't mind if he shares the bed with her, mentioning she's shared with lots of the guys back home and has even had MaM Money shortcut himself naked on top of her before when she'd been sharing with Stretch for a nap. As long as they're clothed, she's pretty sure it'll be alright. She's extremely grateful to everyone being so nice and would tell them so.
Lissa would take up the offer of training! She'd explain she left off on trying to make a barrier, explaining that in her dimension that those with perseverance magic are very defense heavy, but barriers are tough to make so she'd greatly appreciate the training! I think she'd likely ask him a ton of questions on how magic works here and eventually ask if he can teach her to do the whole gravity thing all the skeletons back home seem to be able to do if they can also do it here. MaM Sans said that's training for later, but she wants to learn now!
Why does a little tea party sound so cute, though? They just one day find themselves both wanting tea and end up sitting at the table with a plate of cookies between them, each with a cup of tea and they just talk. She would tell him about MaM Black, he's a lawyer, he's actually defending her against her psycho mother who is trying to remove her from their custody then ask what he does, maybe ask what she should look out for when she's here. Is there anything she should stay away from? What's safe and what's not? Things like that since he's sat with her lol.
Mutt will have no idea what he's gotten himself into by taking Lissa to work with him. She's so freaking mouthy that she will 100% sass back at anyone who is rude to Mutt and is like "What? I don't work here, I can't be fired." She's not gonna do or say anything to get him fired, but it'll certainly be interesting and grumbling that she wishes she could take all these people and shake them violently. Depending on how worked up she gets, Mutt might be the one to get to see her magic start to lash out erratically. Not in an explosive manner, but an oppressive one where it tries to first smother everyone else's magic before turning into something explosive if she got even more worked up!
Whew, this felt like a workout but we got there! This is fun, I'm living for it and get so pumped every time I see a new reblog for it! We're gonna end up with one helluva long post! I love it.
We’re slowing getting into just dialog for different scenes XD eventually it’ll just be us saying one sentence back and forth to each other and someone will put it all together to make an actual chapter XD (I hope you had a nice cup of tea)
With the Red’s Blue’s getting along it’s like one Red has to go watch them baking together and the other has to go stand near the Edge’s as they talk. I feel like both Reds would grumble the whole time no matter who they got put with to babysit them. Skulls would be so embarrassed and try to apologize to MaM Red because he was so nice to her during her stay but it’s like the two Reds are just not going to click.
HND Red would only be nervous around MaM Edge if MaM Edge fought with his brother and used really harsh words. It just makes HND Red feel sick like his own brother still thinks so little of him even if it’s not his brother saying it to him and that’s not MaM Edge and MaM Red’s relationship at all. It almost makes him want to be nearer to MaM Edge or at least his own Edge as a reassurance that he’s not going to get tossed away and his own Big brother tendency start clocking on to sort of prove himself. If HND Blue notices he might hand HND Red a camera and that seems to relax him as he takes candid photos of the meeting.
TWO CAT DADS! HND Edge wants to see all the photos and hear everything! He’s not allowed to have more cats because of all the other pets at the house. HND Red hate’s Doomfanger because he scratches up his arm and personal belongings and it’s so funny how alike the two Red’s are but they hate each other! I love it!! Cause HND Red is also grumbling about the cats. HND Edge actually needs to see all the photos and hear all the stories immediately.
After Skulls is done teasing her Edge she’d nudge Lissa and mention maybe trying to get some cute lingerie even if it’s just for her. Although she understands being self conscious, she use to feel it about her scars. “you just gotta bring along the right pep squad” she says as she scans the area. Skulls was originally going to point out Pink and Taffy because she assumes they’d know their stuff but if they are like Lust and Charm they probably has a bit of a tendency to over react to this sort of thing and might make it worse. She’d land on pointing towards Wine. She can’t really explain why other than her Wine, although very favour orientated, always made her feel safe and has helped with her worst panic attack to date. Skulls just feels like he’d be very professional about it and truthful without making Lissa feel bad about herself.
Skulls wants to ask Lissa if she’s kissed any of the skeletons from MaM so they can compare notes. She doesn’t know anyone, besides Casey, who might have and Skulls is always interested in the different dimensions magic taste and feel.
MaM Black just straight up insulting HND Blue would have the poor man so taken aback. Like he didn’t do anything? At least HND Black hated HND Blue after a few days. First HND Blue was ignored, then he was insulted, my poor boy! The probably is I think because HND Blue would get teary at MaM Black’s language he definitely comes across as manipulative to MaM Black when he’s just upset and Berry and HND Black aren’t helping because they would agree with MaM Black’s assessment. But I think HND Blue is manipulative in a very different way to how MaM Blue can be. MaM Blue seeing HND Blue upset and just scurrying him off to the kitchen as the three fell San’s just complain about them
MaM Papyrus is not allowed to be that smooth around Skulls she is not used to the cinnamon roll flirting back! She’s cooked. Blushing, hitting her head on the table as she groans. If her Papyrus did that she would kiss him again. It does make her wonder how worried her skeletons were about her when she temporarily lived there because they stopped themselves fighting. She guess her house did just burn down, she probably had a lot on her mind to worry about it. I don’t think she’d ask to see the shirt, she just likes that it’s an option.
Don’t let Berry know he’s taller! It’s the only thing he’d say to Lissa! I do think Lissa would get her own nickname from him though like commoner. Berry, not having many friends would probably also be really upset when she has to leave. Like a few days ago he was holding her hand, dragging her around the house to try and hunt down his pet tortoise and now she’s leaving. He will yell his goodbye because he doesn’t know how to feelings appropriately. I also think Orange would spill that Berry likes Skulls (and wants to get railed by her) and Berry gets all purple and screechy but when Lissa starts talking to him about it he opens up and Lissa and Berry AHHHH. Good. Good. “I DON’T NEED YOUR ADVICE COMMONER I AM MORE THAN CAPABLE OF SEDUCING THE PEASENT!” and then they plan a date for Berry and Skulls together. but berry is having so much fun planning with Lissa and thinks the date is perfect and I love them.
Orange is definitely leaning on her when he finds out she’s ok with it. HND Money might see it and get jealous, so he starts doing it to. HND Money is also complaining that Lissa is hanging out with Orange, that’s his friend. He will be there a lot of the time when Berry isn’t.
Hearing her story about the road trip makes HND Edge share when he discovered his own feelings for Skulls and how it relates back to when she got him a job at a high-end restaurant. She saw he was nervous about it and drove him to the interview then helped him keep it a secret until he was ready to share the news. Seeing how she reacted to a compliment I think HND Edge makes a conscious effort to give her more throughout her stay. Just little things, like how well she’s handling Berry, or how nice she looks that day. Just little boosts to make her happy and feel more comfortable.
Alternatively HND Edge accepts Lissa’s kind words but after she says Skulls seems smart he straight up says “PFT NO, SHE’S AN IDIOT. IT’S PART OF WHAT MAKES HER SPECIAL” like Skulls didn’t even notice that the household only eats meals together when she’s there. HND Edge admits he probably does need to tell her straight out that he likes Skulls though so then he can also tell her he’ll wait. It seems like the whole house needs to do that.
I also think HND Edge would offer to cook with Lissa. I think it’s funny that she would be allowed in the kitchen when Skulls is not. And then they can have a cute bonding cooking time and HND Edge shows Lissa his favourite simple meal so if she wanted to surprise MaM Edge one day as a thank you she totally could.
I can also see the Chaos Quartet boomeranging back to pick on Orange. Like Lissa does great throwing back the sass and helping him and then Orange complains about one small thing and the others all do their favourite bit of ‘oh no Orange’s life is so hard and his underground sucked’ sarcasm and Lissa just also falls into it insulting Orange too. He wouldn’t be upset and is just like. How did this happen? We were talking about Money’s being bad at the balancing minigame. The whole gaming group is so wholesome and laughing the whole time.
The Mutt walk in the garden is so cute and may I also propose, Lissa using her ability (on accident of course she can’t control it) to sneak up on HND Coffee while he’s sketching and she sees the pictures he’s doing of skulls and scares him. Like he fully jumps and drops it and gets so embarrassed because please don’t tell anyone he’s drawing the human. And because HND Black doesn’t like photos of the human in the common area’s (besides the paintball one because he didn’t get a choice in that one) it’s probably the first time Lissa sees her.
HND Sans is like, of course you can take notes, do you want some of my notes? We can do a full study session. HND Sans is also a Astronomy Professor but he’s also working in a beginners program at NASA. As far as he knows no one’s been to one of his lectures but he’s always excited to talk about the stars. His talk is filled with puns and he seems relaxed but Lissa can see his eyelights lighting up with just pure happiness. This is totally his element.
Sparrow and Bear picnic! Fuck yeah!
Little morning routines with MaM Sans, asking questions back and forth so cute! Skulls thinks it’s interesting that they have heats to and mentions her dimensions have heat suppressors so she hasn’t really been around the skeletons, minus lust and charm who are always in heat, during a unmedicated one.
Skulls wouldn’t pick him up during their hug but after his reassurance really want’s him to check her out, and YES she’s Phrasing it that way.
Playing games with the MaM boys sort of makes Skulls want to learn some tricks. Her gaming group of the same skeletons always kick her ass so if they have any tips for her to beat them that could be fun.
MaM Money and Skulls would be so dramatic and insufferable to everyone else after a while because they both go to overdramatic.I can see them getting told to quit it more than once during her stay and Skulls will definitely be using Wolf to get Money away just for the lols once or twice.
Her response to Money at dinner is so offended like “Money I don’t just want to just fuck you. I want to rail you. I want to suck on your ribs, have your magic slide down my throat and have such a rough night together neither of us can walk the next day” Like if your gonna call her out in public get it right. God. . . She is getting scolded for that one.
HND Blue thinks it’s so cool that MaM Blue is a police officer and that he’s the first one. Hnd Blue could never get into the force or stay with the guard due to the influx of monsters that emerged. He basically got made redundant. The two are bonding and having a great time become quick friends as they bake. HND Blue tells him he’s a games and puzzle tester for a big corporation. He gets to test everything from escape rooms to video games and classic puzzles. HND Blue would probably talk a lot about rube goldberg machines as he loves to set them up. Comparing Orange and Stretch makes HND Blue wonder, aloud, if that’s the reason the two blues turned out so differently. Orange was always mature and independent, the only time Blue felt like he needed to be his big brother when they grew up was when Orange’s depression hit but it seemed different with Stretch. It actually reminds HND Blue of Carbine and Rifles relationship but way more healthy and he sort of conncets that the two mafia versions are the other extreme. It’s like him and Orange are at one end, MaM Blue and stretch are in the middle and the Mafiaswap brothers are down the other end. These two are super cute together! You can just imagine the never-ending talking coming from wherever they are in the house.
AH the Parallels! Lissa feels the same way about her Wine as Skulls is slowly starting to feel about her Wine and I love it!
I actually think HND Red would cave. Like he’s telling Lissa he’s a terrible dancer and when they get on the dance floor he’s super stiff and not really moving but he went out there with her. Even if her persuasive strategy is terrible I think he would fold. Then grumble about it like he had no choice but to.
Skulls want’s to see MaM Blue’s superspeed after MaM Red mentions it. I could see her also asking MaM Blue to go for a jog or workout in the morning if he’s around. She works out with her Blue sometimes. Mornings would be the hardest for Skulls. She’s handling being here well but she keeps waking up early and it’s sometimes to quiet in the room she’s in. She just wants it to get loud and for things to keep going so she can forget that she’s not at home at the moment.
MaM Red asking if she’s trying to fuck him or something because of the compliments has her automatically replying with a “I’m always trying to fuck you but this is just genuinely so cool” She probably clocks then that she’s being to forward with her compliments for MaM Red and will back off but damn if anyone in the house mentions it she will start up again.
Skulls would try to turn down Taffy then remember no one in this dimension will remember her so fuck it we ball.
I love Needle’s answers to all her questions about how to befriend someone like him. Skulls was kind of just hoping her insecurity was something else. Skulls did ask so she doesn’t think Needle was insulting her but is kind of thankful for MaM Papyrus and MaM Sans for stepping in. Needle kind of exhausts her.
God Orange would be twitching hearing MaM Money shortcutted naked on top of Lissa. If he’s that forward he could be that forward with Skulls and Orange knows Skulls likes HND Money and oft. Pushing that aside! He’s happy to share beds to help her sleep.
I think it’d be cute if Skulls also had a nightmare and like wakes up at the dead of night, because obviously her nightmares are less loud, but she’s having phantom pains and wants tea but doesn’t want to wake anyone and someone finds her standing at the edge of the kitchen staring into it tossing up if making tea is worth Vi being upset with her while she clutches her side in pain. Depending on who finds her could be so fun.
HND Vi happily takes Lissa to the embassy training ground. It’s safe for her to use her magic there and he might be convinced to give her a little gravity training if he can see she’ll handle it. HND Vi likes his Sans so trusts MaM’s judgment but also likes to mess with people a bit. If Lissa’s magic isn’t ready for gravity manipulation he won’t tell her.
Cute little tea party with HND Black. He’s also a lawyer but his firm is very racist towards him. Clover Corp is his only client and he’s working so hard to make sure he doesn’t fuck it up. HND Black is very clear and consist when telling Lissa what to look out for. He basically lays the ground rules for safety if she’s planning on leaving the house and even compliments Lissa on her manners. Saying there’s a lack of it around this place.
I love doing this! It made a hard day so much better as I was kicking my feet with glee! Thank you for the amazing distraction <3
I did have a nice cup of tea! It's part of my sleep hygiene to help me sleep lol. I have a cup of tea and vibe for an hour or two before getting into bed.
They just can't interact with one another lol. The two Red's just have to avoid one another or they'll fight. It's too funny cause I think if they put aside their differences, they might be able to get along. Lissa and Skulls having to take them out on a group hangout just the four of them to get them to interact positively but it's a trial the whole time.
It's unlikely that MaM Edge would fight with MaM Red in front of strangers. That's bad manners! If MaM Edge is sure he isn't making HND Red uncomfortable, he'd probably approach him to jokingly ask how different he is from his older brother or how similar they are. I can also see that if Skulls interacts with HND Red positively or he laughs at something just MaM Edge getting this like soft look and telling him he's glad he's happy here too. He knows what his brother sacrificed to keep him safe, motioning to the same canine MaM Red has replaced with a golden one to emphasize, and that he isn't sure if that's the same for him, but he still always hoped that his older brother is happy, every version of him.
MaM Edge would want to see any pictures HND Edge has of his cats, the two of them are just swapping these cat pictures like currency and they're just complimenting each other's cats on how majestic and amazing they are. No one can interrupt them when they're in cat dad mode, they hear nothing but cats.
Ahhhh, but that's so cute! The two girls go shopping to help Lissa get something cute! Lissa would agree to a small pep squad, but no one who is going to go too over the top. She doesn't want to draw too much attention to herself, so I think she'd accept HND Wine coming along but also laugh saying MaM Wine would be aghast over her buying clothes when he's perfectly capable of making her some. She'd put on her best MaM Wine voice to say in his voice, "Darling, you know I can sew you something so much better than any of these shops. Why must you injure my heart so?"
Oh, Lissa would easily spill that she's kissed a few of them. She's kissed Money more than once, she's kissed Black, Papyrus, Wine, but that was a dare and Red... also more than once and Edge, but the first kiss with Red and Edge she doesn't really count cause that was when she was in heat and couldn't control herself very well. She'd be wondering who Skulls has kissed and might cheekily ask if HND Red has a tongue piercing like MaM Red does, or if HND Edge has one as well cause MaM Edge has his tongue pierced too, and to be a total shit, she'd lean in to whisper that he and MaM Papyrus also apparently have... you know where pierced, although she hasn't seen those yet. Then pull back and say MaM Wolf has a pierced tongue too, but she hasn't kissed him. Lissa would also ask Skulls which kiss was her favourite and why, just wanting good girl time gossip.
MaM Blue would absolutely usher HND Blue away from MaM Black, and he'd apologize profusely, saying MaM Black's issue is with him and not with HND Blue, so he thinks it was really out of line for him to snarl that at him. He'd ask HND Blue if he's okay and if he needs a hug or some hangout time or something to calm down.
Unfortunately, MaM Papyrus is just that smooth and now all I can see is MaM Money patting her back and telling her, there, there, Papyrus is another breed, you can't compare him to others. It's okay to swoon at the things he does; they all do. MaM Papyrus is also the only skeleton that gets along with everyone in the MaM house and manages to pull respect from all of them. Quite the accomplishment!
Berry and Lissa's relationship makes me feel so soft and ooey gooey inside, I love it so muuuuch! Their saying goodbye is so heartbreaking, and I know Lissa would see through his yelling and just hurry to hug him tightly. She'd tell him she's going to miss him and she hopes this isn't goodbye forever. She might tear up a little but still smile, though. It's a bittersweet thing cause she's going home, but she'll miss her new friends. I think Orange would also get a big hug before she left, and HND Edge likely would too, since he helped her with her feelings for MaM Edge so kindly. They bonded! Poor Berry, though, lol guy got put on blast, and Lissa just jokes that man at this point, her too, cause they make Skulls sound so amazing. That part is genuine, the getting railed part is a joke, and she would absolutely help Berry plan a date for him and Skulls. I think she'd even frame it as like no, no, he's helping me plan a date if anyone walked by and asked. I also can't see her being bothered by being called Commoner, and if anyone asked, she'd just say that MaM Red called her "Sourpuss" for ages when she first came to live with them cause her attitude sucked so much, so Commoner is a step up in her opinion.
Lissa would let HND Money rest on her head too, and when he whines, she'd tease that Orange can have two besties, can't he? Then joke that they can rock, paper, scissors for his affections and attention, or they could come up with a secret handshake that's just theirs, and then they'll be besties with their own secret. It would be the most elaborate, obnoxious handshake, too.
HND Edge is so sweet to her, and it makes me MELT. She'd love hearing about when he realized he loved Skulls and say they're twinsies for finding out together because of car rides. Honestly, Lissa needs those compliments; her self-esteem is in the tank thanks to her mother. After a while, though, she'd definitely tease him by telling him he'll have to be careful, or he'll get another admirer cause he's just so damned sweet.
She'd laugh hearing that Skulls was oblivious to that, but then also tell him she's like that too cause apparently her skeletons have been super obvious, but she just hasn't seen it. She just doesn't like to assume! And she'd definitely enourage him to tell Skulls and then says that he and her should make a pact. HND Edge will tell Skulls the full extent of his feelings and that he'll wait and she'll tell MaM Edge that she has romantic feelings for him.
Omg the way she'd snatch up those cooking lessons. She'd be dragging him by the hand to the kitchen, super eager because YES she wants to surprise MaM Edge so badly with cooking something good. She doesn't think she's a terrible cook, but she's not amazing and she wants to be able to make him something good. I think during, though, it'd have her missing MaM Edge a bit. She can't help it since this is something they do together, but she'd try not to let it show and be an attentive student.
Oh no, poor Orange 😂. Destined to be the butt of the joke. Lissa isn't one to be too harsh when teasing, so it shouldn't go too far from her, though. She's also a good gamer and a bit of a smack talker, so if they actually play video games together, they'd better prepare!
AW, poor HND Coffee, and yes, she'd likely accidentally sneak up behind him without realizing she's activated her ability, and once he's startled and the sketchbook drops, she'd apologize profusely. She didn't mean to scare him! It was an accident! She'd promise not to tell anyone, but also ask if she could please see it again. If she's allowed to see, she'd smile and compliment how good it is and that it's really nice to see him drawing. MaM Coffee sketches, paints and draws, which she'd tell him, saying it looks like they're both super talented! Also, that Skulls is very pretty and almost a little jealous, but she gets why everyone seems so infatuated! She's genuine here and hands back the sketchbook, promising again she won't tell anyone, it'll be their secret.
Lissa would love HND Sans's notes and take them gladly. Hearing he isn't sure if anyone has come to his lectures, she'd say if she were here longer, she would. She bets the class would be awesome, and she'll get to see it firsthand now! They're too cute!
Oh, MaM Sans would check her out... her soul that is! Don't worry! And he'd even write down everything her soul stats say including her soul traits.
MaM Coffee is the best for Skulls to go to for gaming tips, and the guys would all tell her so. MaM Coffee would just fiddle with his fingers or his hoodie strings as he stutters out that he can show her how to play and win if she wants. He just wants to be helpful so badly, but he doesn't want to be too pushy. If she accepts, he'll have her whipped into shape in no time!
Oh, they'd be so insufferable, and MaM Money would be LIVING for it. This is his bread and butter. Annoying others? Hell yes, he's in his element, and the fact that she'll do it with him is a huge win. Her answer at the dinner table will have MaM Money cackling with laughter while MaM Vi basically has an aneurysm as he shouts for them both to "WATCH THEIR FRICKING LANGUAGE! WHAT ARE YOU, BARBARIANS?"
The Blue's also melt my heaaaaart. They're besties! I think MaM Blue would think HND Blue's job is so cool and tell him so. He'd ask him all sorts of questions and mention that he's not so good at video games but that Stretch got him to play to help out Lissa while she was in heat, and he had fun so he's been thinking about doing it more often. Does he have recommendations? MaM Blue just listens about the rube goldberg machines with rapt attention, his smile growing until finally he'd tell Stretch to come over. When his brother does, he'd ask HND Blue to repeat what he was saying. Once he does, Stretch would light up because hey, he loves setting things up like that too! Except the last time he made something it got too intricate and also involved MaM Edge's cats so he got into trouble. Stretch has a Ph.D in Engineering that he does nothing with except build stupid and complicated things that often short out the house's power supply. Stretch just teases MaM Blue by saying, hey at least some version of my older brother has good taste in activities. Although if HND Blue and Stretch try to make one, poor HND Blue will have to be careful because Stretch is SO accident prone it's comical. MaM Blue might have to come supervise just to stop his brother from smashing his face on things or slipping on something and falling on his ass. However, MaM Blue might let them go by themselves just to see how they get on and also, because HND Blue will get to see what it's like when one of their brother's while independent still sort of needs an older brother's touch a little. Cause Stretch is quite attached to MaM Blue and I think he'd likely treat HND Blue very similarly to how he treats his own brother. Teasing but warm. Just a lot of comfort.
Lissa is just forcing this poor man to get out on the dance floor, but she'd have fun, telling him she's also not a good dancer. They can dance badly together. I also think if she was tipsy enough and they were in a quieter place or moment, she might just ask HND Red, while thinking she's subtle as fuck but is just so obvious, that "hypothetically" if someone were to kiss him or say... another version of him and then he started ignoring said person right afterwards, why does he think that he'd be ignoring that person? Is he mad? Is he upset? He wasn't mad in the moment! He even joked with her right afterwards, so why is he ignoring her now? Which makes it obvious what she's talking about lol.
MaM Blue would show Skulls his speed, no problem. If she asked, he'd just casually be like oh, sure! Then she'd blink and one moment he's a couple of feet in front of her, then suddenly he's behind her, whispering in her ear, asking what she thought? He'd offer to show her again if she needs him to, because he can do this for a while. His stamina keeps him going like an Energizer Bunny. Oh, MaM Blue would definitely love to take her out with him running. He does it every day often alone since MaM Papyrus and MaM Edge use that as their time since they're best friends. It's their bestie time and he doesn't want to interrupt, so he'd be super happy to have a running buddy he can chat with! She'll even get a gun show since he often wears t-shirts or tank tops when running and it's always ecto out for that.
Poor MaM Red is so baffled and likely tells her that she's weird, but it's her funeral. Who is he to yuck her yum basically lol.
Needle exhausts literally everyone except Lissa and MaM Papyrus so don't worry, Skulls, that's a very common feeling. He was built, literally, to exhaust people.
And unfortunately for Orange, yes, MaM Money would happily walk around naked if MaM Edge would let him, but since he doesn't, he'll likely stay clothed, but their little impromptu sleepover is too cute. Can see her starting to fall back to sleep and mumbling about how the last time she had a bad nightmare, MaM Red sang her Dream a Little Dream of Me then nudging his arm sleepily and going hey... sing it to me. In this jokey tone, not actually expecting him to do it, the joking just helps her feel better.
Oh no, poor Skulls! Likely, one of the insomnia gang would find her. I could see it being MaM Red, he's up late and this would be a time she can see he's got a softer side. He'd tell her to just ignore the Brat and make herself some tea, but if she's uncomfortable, he'll do it, but she can also just blame it on him. MaM Vi would believe that. Then they sit on the stools at the island while she drinks her tea and he eats some leftovers from the fridge or something and he'll just casually ask what the nightmare was about. If she doesn't want to tell him, that's fine, but if she mentions the phantom pain, he'd grunt and say he understands that and motions to his replaced tooth and scar saying this hurts him sometimes when he's super stressed cause the magic in his face is damaged. If she wants severe phantom pains though, she'll have to talk to "pothole" and "goliath", what MaM Red calls Bear and Sparrow. He'd just talk to her, knowing that it helped Lissa when she had her nightmare with him before. Depending on how comfortable they get, he might reveal that the reason he can't sleep right now is cause he feels like shit over what he's doing to Lissa by ignoring her, but he isn't sure what to do about that, but that it's nice that he doesn't have to sit out here in the kitchen alone for once even though her reason for being out there is shit.
I'm just imagining her and HND Vi going to TOWN with their magic training cause Lissa has A LOT of magical potential and built up magic cause she basically still has remnants of what used to make her human powering her soul. I can also see Lissa 100% swearing up a storm just to see if HND Vi is also a potty mouth police because she literally can't help it. She just so badly wants to hear her own Vi yell LANGUAGE at her right now. Hopefully, no one else is around to witness this because it'll sound so unhinged with her dropping f-bombs randomly just to see the reaction.
Lissa would tell him how much she appreciates him explaining all this stuff and thanks him for the compliment on her manners. She'd say MaM Black would be disappointed if he thought she was being impolite to a version of himself, and besides, he reminds her of him, and he's always someone she can run to when she's scared for protection, so it's almost second nature for her to just find HND Black when she's worried about something she's doing that might get her into trouble.
Oh, and speaking of MaM Black, I could see MaM Edge noticing that Skulls seems taken with the guys' magic and their abilities and offer for her to watch him and MaM Black spar in the back field, at a safe distance, of course, if she'd like to. He doesn't mind an audience as long as they're aware they have one. MaM Black wouldn't care if she watched either, but will have to stay far enough back so she's not in danger of being hurt.
OH, AND if Skulls is lucky enough, which Lissa hasn't been yet, but soon she will be, she might be able to catch when Stretch plays piano downstairs because sometimes he'll accidentally leave the basement door open when he plays, so the sound of the piano drifts upstairs. It's unlikely she'd catch MaM Red playing the cello, but if she's in his room for some reason, it's literally right there and obvious in his room, as well as the fact that it's in pristine condition, so it's clear that he takes very good care of it. That's not just decoration; he plays and loves that cello. He hates playing for others, though, so she'd have to try to sneakily listen in if he plays sometime. He's good, too! He's been playing cello for 300 years. Stretch has been playing the piano for just over 100 years and thinks he's garbage at it, but is actually really, really good lol.
Whew, I feel like we're becoming literal champions of sauce!
I wonder what they're playing 🎶
Watch my animatic, boy
I’m gonna kiss all of the skeletons on the mouth (this is both a promise and a threat)

Glowby's pretty lit (get it? xD millennial humor ftw)
The Taste Of Smoke
This is my first fanfic ever and I’m so glad it’s for @clownsaint’s Ersatz!! The pilot was so good and I recommend everyone watching it on YouTube! Also this fic was loosely inspired by @dead-in-dreams Warwick X Carrie fic that I highly suggest you read!
Tags: mentions of death and general war things, explosives, picking at skin, smoking, cigarettes, shotgunning smoke, getting up close and personal with one another
The foxhole was barely big enough for the two soldiers as they hunkered down to wait out the entourage of mortars being shot from the enemy line. Shoulder to shoulder, knee brushing knee, Carrie and Mophead sat there without saying much to eachother. Carrie was pissed that the new recruit to his squad had pushed and pulled him to cover, he had been doing so well, taking out the poor bastards on the other side with ease. That was until they brought out their damned Minenwerfers, those things could erase a man’s entire existence if used right. And they had been.
Warwick was the one the to announce their arrival, the sergeant had yelled to his crew to get down before a mortar came in contact with the ground only a couple of feet infront of him. Carrie didn’t need to see his body when he hit the back wall of the trench to know he was dead. Another body for the rezzer. Carrie didn’t know where Monroe had scuttled off to, but he had left his pal to drag Carrie into the small dirt hole that was now the only thing between the two and another death. Mophead was fiddling with their hands, pulling some skin off from around their nail beds and trembling slightly, causing their knee to bounce against Carrie’s.
The older man let out a n annoyed sigh, pulling his pack close and rifling through one of the front pockets till he pulled out a cigarette case. Popping it open, he took out a cigarette and put it between his front teeth, slowly chewing on it. Carrie didn’t have any lips left, which put him in a bit of a predicament seeing as he still was hooked on nicotine but the chewing helped. The movement caught Mopheads attention, they watched from the corner of their eye, wondering why Carrie didn’t just light the cigarette when a mortar dropped closer than before.
A loud explosion caused the earth above them to crumble slightly, dusting their laps with soil and the noise had Mophead jumping back, knocking Carrie against wall in their haste to get away. Carrie cursed when his shoulder hit the wall and he pinned the young recruit with a sour glare, he shoved Mophead back before growling, “ Cut that out, you can’t keep jumping out your skin every time you hear a loud noise!”
“I’m sorry alright! I’m just not use to it,” Mophead groaned, wiping a hand down their face. Carrie just grumbled something about getting over it when as he reached for the now dirty cig. Mophead watched as Carrie stuck it back between his teeth before asking, “ Why don’t you just light it?” Carrie slowly turns his head to them, and his expression had Mophead feeling very foolish.
They had never smoked, or at least they hadn’t since they lost their memories, but even they knew why after taking in Carrie’s features. “ And what? Just waste a good fag? These things do go for cheap here mate. I just won these last night in a game of scraps, and I ain’t gonna use em up so quickly, “ Carrie said, laying an arm behind his head like a sort of pillow.
Mophead looked to the floor, color staining their cheeks in embarrassment. Carrie was just gonna let the sound of distant bombs fill the void of conversation when he had an idea, he straightened himself and turned to the younger soldier. “ Hey I got an idea, “ Carrie said slyly, waiting for Mophead to react. Mophead lifted their head from their knees, a position they had apparently taken withought Carrie noticing and looked at him with a quizzical look.
“ You could light the cig and use it properly, “ Carrie mused, arching his eyebrow to see if his squad mate would take the hint. They didn’t.
“ I don’t smoke? “ They said, confusion etching their words, why would Carrie suggest that? He had never seen them smoke, so why would he offer a cigarette? “ No ugh- I mean you smoke it but blow the smoke into my mouth eh? It’s called a shotgun,” Carrie explained, making the motion of smoking with the hand that held the now torn up cig. Mophead blushed, deeply.
Doing what the other man had suggested would mean he’d have to get up close and in Carries space, which they couldn’t tell if they hated or liked the idea of. “ Now don’t get all squirmy with me mate, if you don’t wanna you don’t gotta. “
“ It might calm you down a smidge though. you’re as jumpy as an untrained horse, “ Carrie chuckles, waiting for the younger soldiers response. Mophead fiddled again with their fingers, mulling over the possible outcomes of this little venture, another mortar dropped a little closer than normal. The sound of it detonating wasn’t as loud as the one from earlier but still had them jump.
“ It‘ll calm me down?” They asked sheepishly, and when Carrie nodded they sighed and reached out their hand. Carrie was ecstatic of the news but kept his cool as to not scare off his little smoking companion. Carrie opened the cigarette case, placing one in Mophead’s waiting palm before turning and fishing through his pack to find a lighter. Once he found one he turned back to see Mophead waiting, still sitting with the their back against the wall and knees pulled to their chest, that wouldn’t do, if they weren’t close enough they could let more smoke out into the air than into his mouth.
“ Turn towards me eh, I won’t bite ya. Not right now at least,” again Carrie chuckled at his own joke when he realized the more prominent blush staining Mophead’s cheeks , causing him to wonder if the younger solder wouldn’t be opposed to such a thought. Mophead moved slowly, as if rethinking their decision with every moment. They angled their Torso towards Carrie, letting their knees fall back to the ground as they brought the cigarette to their lips, waiting for it to be lit.
Carrie didn’t hesitate, striking the lighter on and bringing the small flame to end of the cigarette before closing it with a click. Mophead took a drag off of it, letting the bitter smoke fill their mouth. Their unoccupied hand went and cupped Carries face, bringing him closer. Carrie got the memo and opened his mouth a little wider before Mophead blew into it.
Smoke filled his mouth but was already fleeing through the gaps of his teeth much to his annoyance, he waited a few seconds before blowing the smoke towards the ground between them, when he looked back up he could see Mophead bringing the cigarette up for another drag. It was interesting being so up close the them, they did look downright human, pale skin with even lighter blonde hair that fell to a little past their shoulders. They’re eyes were pale as well, the iris an off color white while the pupil was just a shade or two darker. The hand pressed against his face was soft, unlike his own which were calloused and scarred. Narrow fingers and a thumb that was just ever so slightly rubbing Carrie’s cheek right below his bandages.
Another breath of smoke was passed between them, but the space was still too open for Carrie’s liking. He reached out and grabbed Mophead right behind their knee, pulling the younger soilder even closer than before , so close that their noses were almost touching. Mophead let out a squeak as they were dragged closer, letting go of Carrie’s face to put their hand on his chest just to be sure they didn’t collide.
“ What’s wrong mate? Do I smell that bad, “ Carrie purred, which made the hair on Mophead’s neck stand up. Carrie for once didn’t smell foul, maybe a little sweaty but not nauseating like he sometimes did. That was because Kelly had gotten on his ass about not bathing and had sent him to the showers that early morning. Carrie hadn’t stopped complaining about it till their squad had reached their post, and well that was almost a solid five hours ago.
Mophead gave Carrie a sort of, “ I like how you said it but not what you said,” look before bringing the almost half gone cig to their lips and taking a deep drag. Carrie opened his mouth again Mophead had another idea, just blowing the smoke directly into his face. Carrie’s good eye stung from the smoke assaulting it as well as his lungs as he started to cough violently into his elbow, it was Mophead’s turn to laugh now. It was a breathy laugh, but the way it lit up their eyes made Carrie’s heart skip a little beat.
This was getting a little out of hand, they way the two were positioned, the way their heart rates were going up. If they didn’t stop this now things could take a strange turn in their friendship, and if Carrie was being honest with himself ( which he never was,) he didn’t mind that possibility. After Carrie’s little coughing fit, the two continued to exhale and inhale the same smoke, lips almost brushing against teeth, Carries hand now resting lightly on Mophead’s thigh while Mophead’s hand was tangled in the front Of Carrie’s shirt. Eventually the cigarette got too small to hold comfortably, so Mophead regrettably had to stubbed it out in the dirt beneath them. Without the smoke, it seemed silly for two men to be sitting like that while bombs were being shot at them.
They were shuffling away from eachother when Mophead realized something, the sounds of mortars going off had ceased. The two of them crawled out of their little hidey hole to the trench in an state of disaster but luckily for them they didn’t have to fix it, all they had to do was gather their dead and try to avoid the topic of what they did in that whole when their squad members were rezzed. If they were asked what they did, Mophead would be very vague, while Carrie said with a smile, “ We shared a smoke. “
